Tips for Sending Money to Nepal

• Exchange Rate vs Fees - A provider with slightly lower rate but zero fees often delivers more NPR than one with higher rate but transfer fees
• Delivery Speed - Instant/fast transfers usually have worse exchange rates. If not urgent, economy transfers get better rates
• Bank vs Cash - Bank transfers usually offer better rates than cash pickup. Cash pickup is faster but costs more
• Regular Transfers - Set up recurring transfers for better rates. Many providers offer loyalty discounts for frequent senders
• Large Amounts - For transfers above $5000, contact providers directly for special rates better than published online rates
