Taptap Send has officially restored its remittance services to Ghana after what was expected to be a month-long pause. Thanks to productive engagement with the Bank of Ghana, the restrictions were lifted earlier than anticipated bringing excitement not just to families, but also to Ghana’s vibrant entertainment industry.
The remittance platform, a major financial support channel for Ghanaians abroad, says money transfers from the UK, Europe, Canada, the USA, and the UAE to Ghana can now resume immediately. The company assured users that it remains safe, fully compliant, and committed to the highest standards of operational excellence.
This move comes as great news for the entertainment scene, where creatives depend heavily on international funding. Whether it’s diaspora fans purchasing music, supporting tours, sponsoring events, or investing in film and content creation, remittances play a vital role.
Industry insiders say the temporary pause had already started to affect artist merchandise purchases, show bookings, and even small studios that rely on external financing especially with December’s event-packed festive calendar approaching. With platforms like Taptap Send now back in action, promoters and artists can breathe a sigh of relief heading into the peak season.
Taptap Send expressed deep appreciation to customers for their patience and unwavering loyalty through what they described as a “difficult time of inconvenience.” The message was filled with love and gratitude: “We dey for you!”
With money transfers restored, diaspora supporters can once again easily back their favourite Ghanaian stars from ticketing major concerts like Detty December events, to supporting emerging acts via streaming promotions and fan-based fundraising.
Taptap Send says it’s ready to reconnect families and fuel the cultural economy.

For years, tattoos in Ghana were whispered about and associated with rebellion, criminality or bad behavior. But today, that narrative is changing. A growing number of young Ghanaians are reclaiming tattoos as a form of self-expression, spirituality and cultural identity.
Their process is meticulous: it starts with a design, moves to a stencil and finally to the needle. Every line, every shade is intentional. Depending on the size and detail, tattoos can take anywhere from 30 minutes to six hours. “It’s not just ink it’s patience, technique and trust,” Franki added.
