Ace money transfer fees

Ace Money Transfer has two main fees: a transfer fee, and an exchange rate fee. The transfer fee is the cost of the service to send money globally. There is no transfer fee on your first transfer abroad.

If you send less than the following amounts with Ace Money Transfer you will pay a transfer fee:

• 85 GBP
• 100 EUR or CHF
• 150 AUD
• 750 DKK
• 130 CAD
• 500 Leu or PLN
• 1100 in SEK or NOK

Any amounts above these amounts will have no transfer fee. Ace Money Transfer does have a partnership with Bank Al Habib which means there's no transfer fee on any transfer amount for cash pickup at one of their branches.

The second fee to expect with Ace Money Transfer is the exchange rate fee. This fee is typically hidden in the exchange rate you get to convert your money into Pakistani Rupees. The exchange rate you get is going to be different from the mid-market rate on Google. And in that difference is a small markup- or fee- that may look small, but really adds up.

Always check for both the upfront fees, and the exchange rate fees to calculate the total cost of your transfer.
