  • When you send money to the USA from abroad, there are two types of costs you should keep an eye out for: currency exchange and transfer fees. You'll see all costs in-app before you send.

    Currency exchange rates and fees

    Sending money internationally often involves 2 different currencies: the currency you’re using to pay for the transfer and your recipient's currency. Before you send money to the USA from abroad in a currency that's different from your recipient's, check our exchange rate in-app. This shows you how much the amount you enter in your currency is worth in your recipient's currency. You may also pay an additional currency exchange fee, depending on your plan, the amount you're sending, and the time of your transfer.
    • If your transfer amount is within your plan’s limit, you won't pay any additional currency exchange fees during market hours on weekdays.
    • Outside of market hours, you'll pay an additional weekend fee on all transfers involving currency exchange.
    • If you're over your monthly exchange allowance, you'll pay an additional fair usage fee on Standard and Premium.

    Transfer fees

    Depending on the transfer method you choose, you may also pay a small transfer fee. This is the amount we charge to process your transfer.
    • Bank transfers: you may pay a small bank transfer fee when you send money to the USA. You'll get discounts on these fees with our Premium, and Metal plans. External banks may charge non-Revolut transfer fees that we can't foresee.
    • Revolut-to-Revolut transfers: you won't pay any transfer fees when you send money online to other Revolut accounts (exchange fees may apply).
  • With Revolut, receiving money is just as easy as sending it. To receive international transfers, select the currency account you'd like the incoming transfer to go to, tap the SWIFT tab to find your details, and give the sender those details. Other Revolut customers can also send money directly to your Revolut account in 30+ currencies.

ÂčA transaction will be outside exchange market hours if it is made between Friday 5pm (New York time) and Sunday 6pm (New York time).
