Why many senders choose Xuno over a bank wire
A traditional SWIFT wire and a Xuno transfer both move money to Nepal, but the cost and speed can differ significantly. Here is how they compare.
| Traditional SWIFT wire | Xuno transfer | |
|---|---|---|
| Transfer fee | $15 to $50 outgoing bank fee | Varies based on the chosen delivery speed |
| Intermediary fees | Possible intermediary bank fees | None |
| Exchange rate | Set by the banks | Two options by speed: Bank Rate (FEDAN) and Mid-Market Rate (MMR) |
| Speed | Usually 1 to 3 business days | From within seconds to a few business days |
| Delivery | Into the recipient's account | Direct deposit into Siddhartha Bank |
| 1% US remittance tax | May apply, depending on funding method | Does not apply (funded by US bank account) |
Xuno typically delivers more rupees to the recipient than a traditional wire, even before factoring in the faster delivery.
