Instant transfers to all 25 Thai banks
New banking rules. Better ways to send.
Big changes have recently taken place in Thailand’s banking system – and they’re making it harder for some services to send money reliably. But with Paysend, it’s easier than ever.
As of May 2025, local transfers to Thai bank accounts are now limited to just 7 out of 25 banks due to regulatory changes. But here’s the good news: Paysend isn’t limited by this. You can still send money to all 25 major Thai banks with just your recipient’s card number – and most transfers arrive instantly.
Whether you're supporting family in Bangkok, covering costs in Chiang Mai or paying for services in Phuket, Paysend gives you the flexibility others can't.
Why Paysend stands out
While many providers are restricted by the new rules, Paysend uses debit card transfers to deliver funds in real time – across all Thai banks.
No account number, no SWIFT code. Just the 16-digit card number (PAN) is enough.

Cada mes, miles de personas que trabajan en la República Checa envían parte de su sueldo a casa; muchos de ellos son ucranianos que apoyan a sus familias en Ucrania. Y el método tradicional complica lo que debería ser sencillo: transferencias bancarias que requieren IBAN y códigos SWIFT, comisiones cuyo importe solo se conoce después de enviar el dinero y días de espera mientras sus familias cuentan con ese dinero.
