Why these are estimates

Fees and FX markups vary by corridor, payment method, delivery method, and promotional periods. The ranking above uses each provider's published fee schedule, but the exact number you see at checkout may differ by a few percent. Always get the live quote before transferring.

Affiliate disclosure: some links on this page may earn SingaGuide a commission if you sign up. Rankings are based on fees and FX markups, not commercial relationships — Wise consistently comes out top because it has no FX markup, not because it pays the best commission.

Before you send money anywhere

Check the receiver is MAS-licensed

In Singapore, all cross-border money transfer operators must hold a Major Payment Institution licence from MAS. Unlicensed shops (even busy ones in Little India or Lucky Plaza) are illegal and have no consumer protection if something goes wrong.
