Send Money from Nigeria to Australia at the Best Rate


Transferring money from Nigeria to Australia can be quick, easy, and cost-effective if you know where to look for the best rates. And if you absolutely want to get the best rates and send at no cost, open a Pesa account today. Here's a guide on how to send money from Nigeria to Australia with Pesa and also things to consider when picking a service provider.
 

1. Compare Exchange Rates

Different money transfer services offer varying exchange rates. Even a slight difference in the rate can have a significant impact on the amount received. Use comparison websites to check current rates from multiple providers. The best part of using the Pesa app is that you get live rates straight from the app. You get to see the exact rate before and during your transaction.    

2. Consider Transfer Fees

Look beyond the exchange rate and consider the transfer fees. Some providers offer lower fees but might have a less favorable exchange rate, and vice versa. Calculate the total cost to find the best deal. Also factor in hidden fees that you may not see until the transaction is done. With Pesa, you get to pay $0 on all your transfers. Zero transfer fees every day, all day    

3. Check Transfer Speed

Depending on your urgency, the speed of transfer can be crucial. Some services offer instant or same-day transfers, while others might take a few days. Make sure to choose one that meets your timeline needs.    

4. Look for Special Offers and Promotions

Sometimes, transfer services offer promotions or discounts for new customers or during special periods. Keep an eye out for these deals to save on your transfer costs. Visit the Pesa website to see our special rates for you when you sign up. You also get referral bonuses when you share the app with friends and family.    

5. Secure Your Transfer

Ensure the service you choose has strong security measures in place to protect your money and personal information. Look for services that are regulated and have good reviews regarding their security practices. Pesa is licenced and regulated in Canada by the Financial Transactions and Report Analysis Centre of Canada (FINCRA)
