Best way to transfer money overseas from Australia

Here at Paysend we’re on a mission to make it easy and affordable to send money from any country to any country, and we won’t stop until we’ve created a world without borders for all of our users! We’re delighted to announce that our lightning-fast global money transfers can now be sent from Australia!

Where do people in Australia send their money?

People living and working in Australia send around $17 billion around the world every year. The top destinations for Australian money are China, India and Vietnam, closely followed by the UK and the Philippines.

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! Paysend will always aim to get your money where you want it to go as quickly as possible. You may also read about how to easily transfer money to Australia online!

How do I get started with Paysend?

Setting up an account with Paysend takes just a few minutes. Simply download the app to your iOS or Android device and start living a life without borders.

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.

Cunoaște-l pe Pavel Štich: cum îi ajută pe cititorii cehi și slovaci să trimită bani acasă

În fiecare lună, mii de persoane care lucrează în Cehia trimit acasă o parte din salariu — mulți dintre ei sunt ucraineni care își sprijină familia de peste graniță. Iar drumul tradițional îngreunează ceea ce ar trebui să fie simplu: transferuri bancare care cer IBAN și coduri SWIFT, comisioane care apar abia după ce banii au plecat deja, și zile de așteptare în timp ce cineva de acasă contează pe ei.

Pavel Štich își ajută cititorii de ani de zile să rezolve exact această problemă. Este cofondator și redactor-șef finanțe la Moneyo.cz, o platformă cehă independentă care compară serviciile de transfer de bani, brokerii bursieri și investițiile alternative — și Ambasador Paysend, ceea ce înseamnă că testează personal tot ce recomandă, explică simplu și oferă cititorilor săi avantaje exclusive. L-am întrebat cum a apărut Moneyo, cine îl citește și de ce a ales Paysend.
