How to send money to a friend abroad using Google Pay

Nowadays, you can do nearly everything using your smartphone. It’s a shopping trolley, map, stereo, cinema and wallet all in one!

Here at Paysend, we love smartphones because they help our customers to send money to their friends and family with incredible ease. Just a few years ago, it was impossible to make an international transfer without travelling to a bank or money transfer outlet, waiting in a queue, and paying money to the cashier to send abroad.

But now, people can send money thousands of miles around the world - and in just a few seconds - using digital smartphone apps.

Paysend has already helped 2.5 million people make the switch from offline to online transfers with our clear and simple smartphone app and web browser platform.

The benefits of Google Pay

Google Pay has revolutionised the way that people make purchases, by increasing speed, security and convenience - you no longer even need your credit or debit card physically present to make purchases! All you need is your fingerprint to shop securely with your phone.

Plus, Google Pay isn’t just for in-store purchases - you can buy goods and services online straight from your phone - meaning you don’t have to waste time entering card details every time you want to do some online shopping.

Lots of people don’t know that you can also use Google Pay to send money abroad - but how, exactly?

Send money abroad using Google Pay

Paysend lets you add funds and send money to your friends or family living abroad with Google Pay.

We all love it when an app or your web browser automatically fills in your details so you don’t have to, helping you to speed through the transaction much more quickly. It’s one of the simple ways that technology helps us in day-to-day life!

In the Paysend app, you can now automatically add your card details from Google Pay to speed up your money transfers even more - all you need to do is select Google Pay as your payment method in the app and confirm the transaction with your thumb or fingerprint.

Head to the Paysend app now, or download it from Google Play, to get started!

International money transfer: zero fee and a special rate offer on your first transfer

Sending money abroad shouldn't mean queuing in a bank branch and filling out forms with codes you may never have heard of. An international money transfer moves your money from your account, card, or wallet in the US to someone else's account, card, or wallet in another country, and, above all, it should be simple, transparent, and reliable enough that you don't have to think twice about it.

Whether you're supporting family back home, paying for something abroad, or sending a gift for a birthday you can't be there for in person, the reason you're sending matters more than the mechanics. If you're new to Paysend, your first transfer comes with zero fee and a special exchange rate, so more of what you send actually arrives, and we'll show you how to claim it.

Poznaj Pavla Šticha: jak pomaga czeskim i słowackim czytelnikom wysyłać pieniądze do domu

Co miesiąc tysiące osób pracujących w Czechach wysyła część wypłaty do domu — wielu z nich to Ukraińcy wspierający rodzinę za granicą. A tradycyjna droga utrudnia to, co powinno być proste: przelewy bankowe wymagające IBAN i kodów SWIFT, opłaty, które widać dopiero, gdy pieniądze już zniknęły, oraz dni oczekiwania, podczas gdy ktoś w domu na nie liczy.

Pavel Štich od lat pomaga swoim czytelnikom rozwiązywać dokładnie ten problem. Jest współzałożycielem i redaktorem naczelnym ds. finansów w Moneyo.cz — niezależnej czeskiej platformie, która porównuje usługi przekazów pieniężnych, brokerów giełdowych i alternatywne inwestycje — a także Ambasadorem Paysend, co oznacza, że osobiście testuje wszystko, co poleca, wyjaśnia to prostym językiem i daje swoim czytelnikom ekskluzywne korzyści. Zapytaliśmy go, jak powstało Moneyo, kto je czyta i dlaczego wybrał Paysend.
