Cons
- Cash withdrawal fees: A 1% fee (with a minimum of 2 EGP) applies to ATM withdrawals, rising to 2% for withdrawals via Fawry outlets or branches.

Our take
The Al Ahli Phone Cash wallet is an excellent and highly practical choice for National Bank of Egypt customers, as it facilitates instant fund transfers between accounts and the settlement of daily payments. However, if you are not a customer of the bank or rely primarily on comprehensive instant payment apps, you might find apps like InstaPay—which enables direct, fee-free transfers between all accounts and cards—to be a more flexible and faster option for daily financial transactions.
The AlAhli Phone Cash wallet is an excellent and highly practical option.
