Compare 4 ways to send money to Australia

Money transfer providers for Australia, ordered by payout coverage, delivery speed and published fees.
ProviderWhat it costsArrivesPayoutOpen provider

What it costs has two parts: the advertised fee, and the exchange-rate margin kept by paying your recipient less than the mid-market rate. The margin is usually the larger, and is never labelled as a fee. Figures are each provider’s published terms, with the fee figures checked against each provider’s own published schedule — open a provider for a live quote.

Too few checked amounts on this corridor to rank by money, so the order is payout coverage, delivery speed and published fees — a provider with a checked figure is not placed above one without. Affiliate arrangements never affect this order.

What these figures are

Fees
As each provider publishes them, September 2026. A provider that does not publish a fee for this corridor shows none rather than a guess.
Payout methods, delivery speed, promotions
Read from each provider’s own pages for this corridor and last reviewed September 2026. Where a provider’s own sources disagree, the disagreement is printed rather than resolved.

Independent — providers cannot pay for placement or ranking · Consistent — every checked amount measured on the same corridor at the same send amount, and any fee quoted on a different basis says so on its own row · Transparent — the advertised fee kept separate from the rate margin

How much you send changes which provider is cheapest

A transfer costs two things: a fee you can see, and a cut of the exchange rate you cannot. They scale in opposite directions, so the best provider for S$200 to Australia is often not the best provider for S$5,000.

What it costs to send money to Australia

Sending money from Singapore to Australia converts Singapore dollars (SGD) into Australian dollars (AUD). Most of the real cost is not the headline fee — it is the exchange-rate margin, the gap between your quoted rate and the mid-market rate banks use between themselves. Two providers can both advertise "no fees" and still differ by several percent on what actually arrives.

This is a migration and property corridor between two high-income economies, so bank deposit dominates and the exchange rate on larger sums matters more than the fee.

That is why the comparison above leads with how your recipient can be paid rather than with a headline price: match the service to how they actually want the money, then check the final quote.

How to choose the right provider

01

Compare the amount received, not the fee

Enter the same amount with two or three providers and compare what your recipient in Australia actually receives in Australian dollars. That one number folds the fee and the rate margin together.

02

Match the payout method to your recipient

In Australia the common rails are bank deposit, plus limited cash pickup. A slightly pricier provider paying into the wallet or account they already use beats a cheaper one that means a trip to an agent.

03

Check cash pickup coverage before you send

Remitly and Western Union offer cash pickup in Australia. Check the specific branch is open and stocked before sending, especially outside major cities.

04

Verify the provider is licensed

Any service moving money out of Singapore should be registered with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Everyone we list is — worth checking for any service you find elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

There is no single cheapest provider on this corridor — it depends on how much you send and how your recipient is paid. Compare the total amount received in Australian dollars rather than the advertised fee, since the exchange rate margin is usually the larger cost. Bank deposit is typically cheaper than cash pickup.

Most transfers on this corridor arrive within one to three business days. Paying by debit card is generally faster than a bank transfer, and transfers initiated outside banking hours may not begin processing until the next working day.

Across the providers we compare, the available payout methods are bank deposit, cash pickup and card payout. The most widely used options in Australia are bank deposit, plus limited cash pickup. This is a migration and property corridor between two high-income economies, so bank deposit dominates and the exchange rate on larger sums matters more than the fee. Not every provider supports every method, so check the table above before you commit.

No. Remitly and Western Union offer cash pickup in Australia, so your recipient can collect the funds with valid photo ID and the transfer reference number. That said, bank deposit, plus limited cash pickup generally cost less than cash collection.

Providers rarely give you the mid-market rate — the reference rate you see on Google or Reuters. Instead they add a margin, typically between 0.4% and 4%, and keep the difference. That margin is often larger than the visible transfer fee, which is why a "no fee" service can still be more expensive overall. For SGD to AUD, compare the quoted rate against the mid-market rate to see the real spread you are paying.

Yes, provided you use a licensed provider. Every service listed on this page is regulated in Singapore under the Monetary Authority of Singapore, which requires safeguarding of customer funds and identity verification. Send only to people you know personally, keep your transfer reference private, and be sceptical of anyone pressuring you to send money urgently to someone you have not met.

Yes. Each provider sets its own transfer limits, which vary by how much identity verification you have completed and how you pay. Larger transfers may require additional documentation such as proof of source of funds. For transfers above roughly S$10,000, a specialist foreign-exchange broker will often beat an app on rate.

Wise's own table states the send amount its cost applies to, and every funding row held identical across two independent reads: 2.59 SGD from a Wise account, 2.75 by bank transfer, 46.34 by debit card. This is the cheapest corridor in this batch on Wise's balance-funded route.
