Sending money by Post Office
To make a transfer with the Post Office, you can choose to either go to one of their physical locations (which may be an independent Post Office or as part of another store), or use their online service on the Post Office website. You can choose either a cash pick up or delivery to a bank account. Make sure you’re aware of the fees, as they are different depending on which method you choose!
If you choose to go in-store to one of the Post Office’s many locations, you'll need to fill out a money transfer form, and you’ll be guided through the process by the cashier, or if you do it online you’ll be able to send money by yourself after you’ve registered.
