Our process

How we collect and compare rates

RemitCheap is an independent comparison tool. We pull quotes from each provider's public pricing endpoints, not marketing pages or hardcoded tables, and rank them the way you would: by what your recipient actually gets.

How we calculate

Cheapest sorts by what your recipient gets after fees and the exchange rate. Whoever delivers the most wins. Fastest uses scraped delivery-time estimates. Most popular follows how often RemitCheap users click through to each provider. Payment and delivery filters draw on live scraped quotes for each method combination. Always confirm the final quote on the provider's site before you send.

How we collect rates

We scrape each supported provider on a regular schedule (currently every 30 minutes) using the same public quote APIs and calculators their websites show to anonymous visitors. We store quotes at fixed send amounts ($100, $500, $1,000, and $5,000) because most providers price by amount tier.

When a provider returns method-specific pricing (for example debit card vs bank transfer, or bank deposit vs cash pickup), we store each combination separately. We don't invent payment or delivery options. The filters on the comparison page only show combinations we've actually scraped for that corridor.

The comparison page reads live data from our database. When a new scrape finishes, results update automatically for anyone viewing that corridor.

What to know before you send

Rates and fees shown here are estimates. They can be delayed, incomplete for a corridor, or different from the final quote at checkout, especially after promotions, login, or KYC. The rate column may show each provider's quoted exchange rate or an effective rate derived from send and receive amounts, depending on what their API returns.

RemitCheap is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any listed provider. This is not financial advice. Always confirm the final quote on the provider's own site before sending money.
