How to transfer money from one account to another
One of the best things about having money in your bank account is the freedom and power you have over what you do with it. But what’s even better is doing something with your money that makes the people you love happy.
Sending money with your friends and family can improve their standard of living, make a child happy for their birthday, or simply put a smile on someone’s face! To make sure that the movement of your money is fast and seamless, you need to send your money using the correct method.
What are the options for transferring from one bank to another?
If you have money sitting in your bank account, it should be easy enough to send it for free to another bank account anywhere in the world using your bank’s online services, right?
Wrong.
Transferring money from one account to another is easy and free if you’re in the same country, but as soon as you try to share your money with someone who has a foreign bank account, the charges can start racking up. You may have to pay a percentage of the amount you’re sending, or a large fee to send your money.
The easiest way to save yourself money is by taking matters into your own hands. You could try taking out cash from your account and sending it via post to your recipient so they can deposit it in their bank account, but we wouldn’t recommend doing that - it isn’t the safest method, and can take a long time!
So is there a transfer method that gives you the power to make the transfer yourself without the assistance of your bank, which isn’t expensive, and which ensures that the money arrives with your recipient quickly? Glad you asked, because yes there is!
