Two-step route via a dollar stablecoin (USDT)

Buy USDT for USD in one service, send it (fees are cents), and sell it for GBP in another. Two steps, but often cheaper than a bank wire, and it works for corridors nobody serves directly.

FAQ

What is the cheapest way to send money from United States to United Kingdom?

Compare the amount received, not the advertised fee: a "0% fee" service can hide 3% in the exchange rate. The list above already accounts for both.

How long does a transfer from United States to United Kingdom take?

Card-to-card and stablecoin transfers usually arrive within minutes; bank payouts can take up to 1–3 business days.

What is the USD to GBP exchange rate today?

The mid-market rate is 1 USD = 0.755789 GBP. Services add their own markup; we show how much of it you lose.

Are these services legal and safe?

All listed services are public companies with their own licences and terms. Check the recipient's country rules and your bank's limits before a large transfer.
