SN — Senegal

Senegal is a West African country on the Atlantic coast, known for its stable democracy and vibrant culture. Dakar, the capital, is the westernmost city on the African mainland and a major cultural and economic hub. Senegal surrounds The Gambia on three sides. The country uses the West African CFA franc (XOF) and hosts the BCEAO, the central bank of the West African Monetary Union. For developers, the SN country code maps to the fr-SN locale for Senegalese French and wo-SN for Wolof, the most widely spoken local language. The .sn domain serves Senegal's growing digital economy, and +221 is the dialing code. Senegal has a thriving tech scene — Dakar hosts numerous tech hubs and startup incubators. Mobile money services like Orange Money and Wave are widely used, making payment API integration essential. Senegal's role as the WAEMU central bank host makes it important for understanding regional financial infrastructure across Francophone West Africa.
