Barclays is a British bank whose history dates back to the 17th century! They have around 4,750 branches around the world, and as a bank they offer a number of services. You can get a mortgage with Barclays, manage an investment portfolio, do your day-to-day banking and, if you want to move funds to someone internationally with Barclays, send money abroad.
This blog will give you some essential information about international money transfers with Barclays, including some of the pros and cons of using Barclays to send money abroad, so that you can decide whether Barclays is right for you!
How to send money abroad with Barclays
With Barclays, you can choose to either go in-branch to make an offline international transfer, or use Barclays’ online banking service to transfer the funds. You should bear in mind that in order to send money abroad with Barclays you’ll need to have a bank account with them.
If you choose to go in-store, you'll need to fill out a money transfer form, and you’ll be guided through the process by the cashier. Alternatively, if you choose the online service, you can do it independently from the Barclays smartphone app or web browser platform.
What are the pros and cons of sending money with Barclays?
There are lots of different options when you come to choose a service for your international transfers, and they vary on cost, speed and simplicity.

Overseas payments may cost £6 to receive
