Sending money to a phone number is best achieved using mobile payment apps (Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle), carrier-based mobile money services (MTN, Ncell), or international money transfer services (Western Union). These methods allow instant transfers, often requiring only the recipient's phone number and a linked bank account or card.
