How to send money abroad (international transfer)

Revolut & Wise are the most convenient and lowest fees.

  • PayPal is a mega ripoff. Big fee and also they rip you off on the exchange rate.
  • Western Union, WorldRemit, Cobra, Megatone, etc…the fees can be good and reasonable but they run a different scam. Money isn’t available for pickup in volatile countries (like Argentina) unless rates are favorable during pickup. At least that’s how I suspect they operate.
  • For this reason…many countries have their own regional transfer institution in their countries (like PIX for Brazil).
