How to send money from Canada to Peru

Pick a company

Start with the cheapest, which is Remitbee at 2,411.4 PEN on $1,000.

More than half of Canadians sending money still pay at a store counter. The same company is often cheaper online.

Fund your transfer

You have 6 ways to pay, including debit card, bank transfer, credit card, interac, bill payment, and cash deposit.

Interac e-Transfer is how most companies take your money, moving it into their Canadian account so they can carry it over the border.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need a photo ID, and often where the money came from.

Your first transfer will be slower than the ones after it because of those checks, so send it a few days before it's needed.

Compare amounts

How much CAD are you sending to Peru?

How much CAD you send to Peru heavily affects the best ways and the cheapest options. Use the table below to check how the cheapest options change and how much more you'd get by comparing.

Ways to send money from Canada to Peru

There are 12 companies sending money to India, but how you send depends on your needs.

Most common option

In-person transfers

Hand your cash over the counter and your recipient can collect it the same day without needing an app or bank account.

Bring $1,000 in cash to the closest Ria Money Transfer location, and your recipient picks up 2,370.69 PEN within minutes.

Cash transfers cost more

Cash transfer to Peru is usually the most expensive option, compare your options above to get the best deal.

For transfers home

Money transfer apps

An app does the same job as the store for less, and you top it up with an Interac e-Transfer, the same way you'd send money to a friend.

Remitbee charges $0 in fees and adds -0.45% markup, so your $1,000 delivers 2,411.4 PEN in next day.

You don't need a SIN to sign up either, a passport works.

For one-off transfers

Online transfers

For bigger or less frequent transfers, compare a couple of online services on the day, and pick the cheapest.

Of 12 online companies, Remitbee is the cheapest and currently gets you 2,411.4 PEN on a $1,000 transfer after a $0 fee and -0.45% markup.

Funding by bank transfer (EFT) is cheapest but takes 1-2 days to clear, and Interac e-Transfer or debit card is faster but pricier.

For large transfers from Canada

Currency brokers

For property, tuition, moving from Canada, or an inheritance, a broker is the best and usually the cheapest option.

Brokers like OFX charge no fees but add 0.65% on CAD/PEN interbank rate.

The markup gets lower the more you send, with an account manager handling it end to end.

If you're sending large amounts. expect more questions about the transfers, so have statements and documents ready to avoid delays.

If you already have one

Challenger banks

Some neobanks in Canada include international transfers with no transfer fee as part of the account.

Koho sends your $1,000 for $26.26 in fees with 0.05% markup.

It's a good option for small ocasional transfers, but I still suggest .

For businesses paying abroad

Global accounts

Global accounts handle the business side, paying suppliers, contractors and overseas invoices in PEN.

Companies like OFX, Airwallex, or WorldFirst are set up for the batch and recurring payments a personal app can't do.

For spending abroad and getting paid

Multi-currency accounts

If part of your life runs in PEN, be it spending it, saving it, or waiting for a better rate, a multi-currency account can hold it alongside your CAD.

Wise lets you hold CAD and PEN, and convert between them at low cost.

For example, converting $1,000 costs $25.55 in fees at -0.01% markup, which gets you 2,339.48 PEN.

Ways to fund CAD and receive PEN in Peru

With Remitbee, paying by interac and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending $1,000 gives your recipient 2,411.4 PEN.

Deposit CAD using debit card, bank transfer, credit card, interac, bill payment, and cash deposit.

I suggest using Interac e-Transfer for simplicity

Follow the company's Interac instructions and check the business name before sending.

Do not send to an email address supplied outside the company's app or website.

The recipient can receive PEN through bank deposit, cash pickup, plin, yape, mobile wallet, and mobile money.

For a bank deposit payout, you will need the recipient's bank details in Peru.

Consider this when sending CAD to India

Interac can fund an international transfer, but it does not send money abroad by itself. You should also know what happens when a transfer reaches the FINTRAC reporting threshold.

Compare CAD/INR transfer options

For a $1,000 transfer to Peru, these are the cheapest, fastest and easiest options available now.

Best way to send money to Peru

Remitbee is the cheapest and easiest option, funded by interac with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 2,411.4 PEN, which is 1.07% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Peru

TapTap Send is fastest when you pay by debit card and choose mobile wallet for the payout. The transfer delivers 2,373 PEN in minutes.

Interac only works inside Canada

An Interac e-Transfer cannot go directly to a recipient in Peru.

When a transfer company accepts Interac, you send CAD to its Canadian account and the company handles the international side over its own network.

C$10,000 reporting threshold

There is no C$10,000 legal cap on electronic transfers from Canada.

A reporting entity must report an international electronic funds transfer of C$10,000 or more to FINTRAC, including linked transfers that meet the 24-hour rule.

The bank or transfer company makes that report, you do not file it yourself.

But you may be asked for proof of where the money came from.

Sending your own cash or making a genuine cash gift does not create a Canadian gift tax simply because the money goes abroad.

Tax can become relevant when you transfer an appreciated asset rather than cash, or when attribution rules apply.

CDIC protection

Money held with a payment company is not covered by CDIC in the same way as an eligible bank deposit.

Payment companies covered by the Retail Payment Activities Act must safeguard end-user funds, but the Bank of Canada does not resolve individual fee or payment disputes.

If you’re unsure about the company, you can check the company in the FINTRAC MSB Registry.

If you live in Quebec, also confirm that it is allowed to provide money services there.

Live CAD-PEN Exchange Rate
