Larger international payments

Sending a larger amount?

The number that matters

Compare the recipient amount, not just the fee.

A low visible fee can sit beside a different exchange rate. The cleanest cross-provider checkpoint is what the recipient is expected to receive for the same sender outlay and delivery method.
