Sending Money to the UK

If you're sending money internationally to a Chase bank account in the UK through your local bank, the transaction will likely be much pricier than it ought to be. —

This is because fixed international bank transfer fees, bad exchange rates, and correspondent banking fees can stack up very quickly. At Monito, we analyzed the cost of sending money with around 50 major banks in eight countries around the world, and we can confidently say that we don't recommend using your bank to send money to the UK.

Additionally, bank transfers via the SWIFT network tend to take quite long (between one and five business days on average), meaning they're not a good option if you want to make a speedy transfer.

Fortunately for you, much smarter alternatives exist. Using a digital money transfer provider, not only could you up to 95% in fees compared to the bank, but you'll also be able to send money more quickly to your beneficiary's account at Chase.

Receiving Money From Abroad

Are you expecting a transfer from abroad and is the sender asking you to provide a Chase UK SWIFT/BIC code? Then you're likely going to receive less than you should because of the high international bank transfer fees and bad exchange rates that are usually applied by the senders' bank.

For example, a typical foreign bank will charge between 5% and 10% in total fees for sending a £1,000 equivalent to the UK. With costs like this, you'd easily receive £50 to £100 less per £1,000 sent than you would've had you transferred at the real, mid-market exchange rate.

Luckily, a much better alternative exists to save money when receiving money in the UK from abroad. It's called the Wise Account and it's available for both individuals and businesses. Using a Wise Account (available in the UK), you'll get local bank account details for 10 different currencies. What's more, you'll be able to send, hold, spend, and receive British pounds and other foreign currency at the mid-market exchange rate with low, transparent fees. This means you'll be able to use Wise to receive money like a local in the UK (and other currencies), making it an excellent online account for this purpose.
