How to Compare Transfer Costs
The true cost of an international money transfer has two parts: the transfer fee charged upfront, and the exchange rate markup — the difference between the mid-market rate and the rate the provider gives you. Many services advertise zero fees but apply a 1-3% markup on the exchange rate, which on a $1,000 transfer costs $10-30. Always compare the total cost including both components.
