Is Paysend right for you?
Traditional methods of money transfer involve long queues in banks, remittance shops and post offices. This way of sending money is best for some, who need help from a cashier to send their money, but the queues, high fees and poor exchange rates put many people off.
Paysend allows users to send money from Australia all around the world from their smartphone via the Paysend app. We allow you to send money directly to cards or bank accounts for a flat, low fee.
How much does it cost to send money from Australia with Paysend?
Paysend charges a flat fee of just A$2 for every money transfer from Australia to any other country in the world. That means if you want to send A$20, A$200 or A$2000 from Australia to the UK, it will always cost you just A$2.
When will my money reach its destination?
Money sent with Paysend will usually arrive in your recipient’s bank account or on their card within a few minutes of being sent. However, it may take up to three days if your recipient’s bank isn’t quite as quick at processing payments as us!
