COP to ZAR: Convert Colombian Pesos to South African Rand

Currency exchange rates rise and fall constantly, so it's wise to keep an eye out for current market trends. Our goal is to give you easy access to the most updated info so you can find a great exchange rate that works for you.
Before converting Colombian Pesos to South African Rand, use our currency converter, conversion tables, and price comparison widget to find today's exchange rates and compare different providers. Keep in mind that exchange rates fluctuate constantly, so always double-check our current rate in-app before converting.

Depending on your plan, the amount you're exchanging, and the day of the week, you may pay a currency exchange fee. If you're sending COP to a ZAR account, you may also pay a small transfer fee. You'll always see the total cost in-app before you exchange, along with the Revolut exchange rate.

Currency exchange fees

If the amount you're exchanging is within your plan’s fair usage limit, you won't pay any additional currency exchange fees during market hours.

Depending on your plan, you may be charged a fee on all exchanges made outside of the foreign exchange market hours between 5pm Friday and 6pm Sunday, Eastern Time (ET). For Standard customers, this fee is 1%. Premium and Metal customers don't have to pay an additional fee.

If you're over your monthly exchange allowance, you'll pay an additional fair usage fee, depending on your plan (0.5% fee charged for exchanges over $1,000 or equivalent in Standard plan and 0.5% fee charged for exchanges over $10,000 on Premium). There are no fair usage fees with our Metal plans. These limits are set on a rolling monthly basis. You can check your fair usage limit and the date it will reset under Your plan in your profile.

Money transfer fees

When you send COP to a ZAR account, you may pay a small transfer fee. This is the amount we charge to process your transfer. The total cost depends on the transfer method you choose, the destination country, and the amount you're sending, but don't worry — you'll see all costs live in-app before you send. You'll get discounts on these fees with our Premium and Metal plans. Heads up — external banks may charge non-Revolut transfer fees that we can't foresee.

If you're looking for no-fee money transfers, try a Revolut-to-Revolut transfer. You can send money to other Revolut friends in any of the 25+ supported currencies you hold, without having to convert.

For more information on your plan's fees, check out our terms and policies. Fees are subject to change, but you'll always see them in-app before you convert.
