Very difficult to upload photo id for verification and very bad customer service

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2025-09-12, version 2.48.3*

Cant add my bank at home as recipient i press the add recipient option it loads and return to same page, I had to send all my salary to my wife companion card so she can withdraw and deposit into my bank account.

### 1/5 — Faulty, problematic and slow

*2025-09-10, version 2.48.3*

Fundamentally it’s poor! Fails to load even after updates and my
Biggest issue is how slow the transfers are even to an account of the same currency! So the fees are stupid! I only use it because it is how I receive funds.

### 1/5 — Worst payment service

*2024-09-10, version 2.28.1*

Every month is a constant hassle sending money back to your home country from having to reload  beneficiaries , to deleting and redownloading the app 

The customer service is awful as well as my self and many of my colleagues have had a negative experience with the service department of ship money . From delaying reply's to even blocking once phone number. 

If there was a noter way to get my salary id that it in a hart beat . 

Good luck crew member

### 1/5 — Not received money

*2024-07-18, version 2.26.15*

I have paid money back home more than a week ago and still have not received my money in my account back home. It has already been 7 working days like they said and still nothing. I have contacted my bank back at home and there is also nothing. It makes it very hard to support my family back home.

### 1/5 — Bad experience

*2023-09-10, version 2.20.2*

The app is never opening properly in iOS 16.5.1 (c). It was opening very rare but now is not opening at all. I e heck and i don’t have any update to run on the phone nor the app.

### 1/5 — Ужас…

*2023-06-24*

При заполнении реквизитов куда отправляешь доступно три поля а после создания ресепиента при просмотре деталей поля пустые а они не были показаны при заполнении… Не понятно прийдет ли перевод вообще…

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2021-06-29, version 1.1.0*

When trying to create a recipient, no matter how many times I try to put in my Swift BIC code I get the same message that I can not leave this field blank 
Checked and rechecked my swift code which I have used many times before and still myths same message that I cannot leave this field blank 
Tried the help line who said they would set it up for me two days ago I’m still waiting 
Who’s money is it 

Absolute rubbish

### 1/5 — Would give it a 0 star if I could

*2021-01-08*

So every single time I go to use this app,I can’t. I didn’t have to go online to the website since this app is completely useless even after registering my phone. It’s even harder when on a cruise ship to get into the app and I’m forced to pay international roaming charges to use my data abroad to access any of my money.  I also have friends that had money hacked from this account and it took months to resolve. I don’t trust this company and if it weren’t the only way of receiving my pay, I’d never deal with them again.

**Developer response:** Thank you, please report any issues you face, directly to operations@shipmoney.com

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-03-23, version 2.23.3*

Very helpful and low rates

### 5/5 — Updated App looks and works great

*2024-02-03*

I’m happy ShipMoney updated their App it is much more easier to use and the buttons are clear and simple to use.

### 3/5 — Not working

*2025-01-12*

App not working,the screen stays blue.

### 2/5 — Не открывается

*2025-02-05*

При заходе в приложение, просто горит синий экран и ничего не происходит. Если зайти в браузера, всё работает, но приложение умерло, даже после переустановке.

### 2/5 — Unsatisfactory service

*2024-10-16, version 2.30.4*

The App works okay but the bank is a headache I don’t know why I just wish my company would use other banks rather than ShipMoney.

It takes long to get feedback they say 48hours after u log a complaint. After the 48hours you’ll have to wait again 7 days to get your money refunded on deposited to your recipient.

I have been struggling to keep up with my instalments and bills because there is no consistency with the bank.

Every month I'm struggling to have a smooth transaction of funds from my ShipMoney to my home bank account.

If it’s not wiring problems it’s money gram blocked funds 

It’s so frustrating and painful using this bank.

### 2/5 — Simple yet Arduous

*2023-05-02, version 2.15.8*

As a crew member who is forced to use this service i can appreciate the move to a more simplistic and sleek design for the new app and website, however ShipMoney remains a headache for remittances as once they have sent money incorrectly to another person and more recently put holds on your funds without any notice. 

While they attempt to do the best to offer smooth services, i feel like the customer support should re-evaluate the manner in which notifications and messages are sent to further smooth the processing of ones funds.

### 2/5 — Not there yet

*2023-04-03, version 1.1.2*

It’s still functioning like a site instead of an application like other banking apps, there is still a lot to improve on.
