AUD/CVE Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from Australia to Cape Verde?

The cheapest way to send AUD to CVE can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Ria Money Transfer), across 30 days of comparisons for 2,000 AUD transfers to Cape Verde.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $2,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $2,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.

The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.

When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more CVE per AUD than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 1 of the last 30 days.

Right now, Ria Money Transfer pays 134,884.61 CVE on 2,000 AUD, which is 1,261.77 CVE less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 137,100 CVE.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Ways to send money from Australia to Cape Verde

5 money transfer companies let you send money from Australia to Cape Verde.

Cheapest for most transfers

Online transfers

Sending money online with a “self-service” provider is usually the cheapest way to send money to Cape Verde.

For example, sending A$2,000 with Ria Money Transfer will get you 134,884.61 CVE after a A$2.89 fee and 0.79% markup.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 9 of the 19 days it quoted.

To speed up the transfer, use PayID or bank transfer, this will ensure your money is withdrawn instantly from your AU bank account.

Plus, PayID shows the registered payee name, which gives you an extra check against the details you entered.

For regular transfers home

Money transfer apps

An app suits the transfer you make over and over to the same recipient, similar amount, every payday or so.

Ria Money Transfer takes A$2.89 in fees and 0.79% markup on a A$2,000 transfer, and your CVE arrives in 6-12 hours.

Over the past month, Ria Money Transfer was the cheapest app on 47% of the days it appeared for A$2,000 transfers.

Signing up is quick even if you're new to Australia.

A passport and visa are enough for most money transfer apps, and no local credit history is needed.

For large AUD transfers

Currency brokers

Money transfer brokers are best for large transfers, like buying property, moving abroad, or paying student fees.

On transfers of $10,000 or more, a broker like Xe drops the fee entirely and works on margin instead.

With Xe you get 1.53% on AUD/CVE, and it gets lower the more you send.

You also get an account manager for the whole thing.

Our analysis shows Xe was the cheapest broker in 43% of all the transfers it quoted.

For overseas business payments

Business accounts

Global accounts like Airwallex are great for paying suppliers, contractors or staff in CVE, handling invoices, batch payments, and more.

For receiving and spending

Multi-currency accounts

Multi-currency accounts let you hold AUD and CVE in one account, and convert when the rate suits you.

Wise converts A$2,000 at -0.19% markup, and the CVE sits in your account until you spend or transfer it.

Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.

Most useful if you travel often to Cape Verde, split your life between two countries, or receive money from abroad.

We also created a guide going into more detail about multi currency accounts.

Ways to fund AUD and receive money in Cape Verde

With Ria Money Transfer, paying by credit card and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending A$2,000 gives your recipient 134,884.61 CVE.

You can fund the transfer with debit card, credit card, bank transfer, PayID, PayTo, POLi, and osko.

You can pay with PayID

Use the PayID supplied by the company and confirm the recipient name shown by your Australian bank before approving the payment.

Recipients in Cape Verde can collect CVE through bank deposit and cash pickup.

They can collect cash via Ria Money Transfer

For cash collection, the recipient should take a photo ID and the transfer reference to a participating location in Cape Verde.

Consider this before sending AUD to Cape Verde

Every international transfer is reportable by the company handling it, but that is not a tax or a form you normally file yourself. PayID can fund the transfer, while the overseas leg still needs a transfer provider.

Compare AUD/CVE transfer options

For a A$2,000 transfer to Cape Verde, these are the best options right now:

Cheapest

Ria Money Transfer is cheapest when funded by credit card with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 134,884.61 CVE, which is 0.6% more than the next best option.

Fastest

Remitly delivers 133,660 CVE in within an hour when you use debit card and choose bank deposit as payout.

If you need money urgently, we've put together a guide on instant money transfers.

PayID is domestic only

PayID and Osko move Australian dollars between local accounts.

When a money transfer company accepts PayID, it collects the AUD in Australia and then handles the conversion and payout in Cape Verde.

Confirm the registered business name shown by your bank before approving the PayID payment.

AUSTRAC reporting

The bank or remittance company reports international transfer instructions to AUSTRAC.

This applies to international transfers generally, rather than only those above A$10,000.

You do not normally submit the international transfer report yourself.

A separate threshold report applies when a transaction involves A$10,000 or more in physical cash.

Large or unusual transfers can still trigger source-of-funds checks. Keep the sale agreement, invoice or bank statement that explains the payment ready.

Cash gifts can affect Centrelink payments

Australia does not generally tax a genuine cash gift simply because you send it to family in Cape Verde.

Gifting money can still affect income-tested or asset-tested Centrelink payments.

Services Australia can continue assessing gifts above its gifting free areas under the income and assets tests.

If you or your partner receive a relevant payment, check the gifting rules before sending a large amount.

Bank protection in Australia

The Financial Claims Scheme protects eligible Australian-dollar deposits with an Australian-incorporated ADI, up to A$250,000 per account holder per ADI.

It does not automatically cover money held by a non-bank transfer company.

In case of issues, if a complaint is not resolved, the Australian Financial Complaints Authority is the free external dispute service for member financial firms.
