User Reviews

EthioDirect shows potential with a user-friendly interface and positive reception when it works, but reliability is a major issue. Users report frequent transaction failures, declines, and accessibility problems since 2026, plus difficulties with recipient flows and fraud-related card blocks. The service seems usable mainly for small transfers.
Pros
  • Generally positive sentiment when it works (described as good, nice, or very good).
  • Easy to use and user-friendly when the service is functioning.
  • Appears to support international/digital banking transfers.
Cons
  • Frequent transaction failures and declines (for example, 'Unable to process transaction/PGW').
  • Not working / inaccessible since early 2026 in many cases.
  • Flow issues: cannot pass recipient account number / process gets stuck.
  • International card blocks / fraud warnings causing cards to be blocked.
  • Works only for small transfers; larger transfers tend to fail.

very good

This app crashes frequently and is very unstable. The OTP system is completely unreliable; it repeatedly says an OTP has been sent, but no code ever arrives by SMS or email. Without the OTP, users cannot access essential services. I tried multiple times with the same result. A financial app should be dependable, but this one fails at the most basic verification step. If zero stars were an option, I would give zero. Unfortunately, one star is the lowest.
