2 companies send money from Spain to Aruba, across online, app, and in person, and more.
Monthly remesas abroad
Sending monthly remesa is extremely popular in Spain.
Money transfer apps let you save contacts, schedule transfers, and lock-in rates.
Useful if you’re sending €100 to €300 monthly to Aruba.
TransferGo charges €0 on a €1,700 transfer and pays out 3,372.69 AWG in next day.
You can pay for the transfers via bank transfer, debit card, and credit card, but Bizum is usually not accepted as a funding method.
For cash pickup and deposit
The locutorio on the corner has been sending money home for decades, and for families who need to collect cash the same day, this is the best way.
Pay MoneyGram the €1,700 by card or transferencia, and they can collect cash in Aruba.
Worth noting, cash transfers are faster than online methods, but usually more expensive, so .
For one-off transfers
For medium sized or one-off transfers to Aruba, an online money transfer service funded from your bank account is better than any bank.
TransferGo turns €1,700 into 3,372.69 AWG with a €0 fee and 3.21% markup.
Sending large amounts
Currency brokers are best for sending €10,000+ to Aruba. This can be things like selling property, moving a pension, moving back home, etc…
Brokers like Regency FX, Key Currency, or TorFX charge no fee on large transfers, just a margin that gets smaller as the amount grows.
You also get an account manager, access to forward contracts, limit orders, and more.
For businesses and autónomos paying abroad
Companies like Wise Business, Payoneer, or Airwallex are best suited for businesses in Spain making payments to Aruba.
You can pay suppliers and freelancers, process invoices, make batch payments, and much more.
How you fund the transfer and how your recipient receives it affect the fees and how much AWG they get.
With TransferGo, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending €1,700 gives your recipient 3,372.69 AWG.
For funding your transfer from Spain, you can use bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.

It is fast to fund the transfer, although delivery to Aruba depends on the company's payout time and delivery method.

Here are a few things to know before sending money from Spain to Aruba.
These are the current best options for sending €1,700 to Aruba:
Cheapest option
Use ƒ3,372.69, pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 3,372.69 AWG, which is 0.8% more than the next best option.
Fastest option
With MoneyGram, a debit card payment to cash pickup gives your recipient 3,345.77 AWG in minutes - 24 hours.
SEPA and SEPA Instant only work within the Eurozone, and Bizum largely operates in Spain.
Sending EUR to Aruba is different because it needs a currency conversion.
SEPA or SEPA Instant can be used to fund the transfer itself (since both are in EUR), but it does not guarantee instant transfer to Aruba.
Your bank or transfer company can ask for a justificante showing the source and purpose of a large or unusual transfer.
Keep the sale agreement for property, an invoice for tuition or a bank statement for savings.
Ask your bank to raise its own online transfer limit before the payment is due, rather than splitting a payment to avoid a check.
A payment or electronic-money institution is not the same as a bank, so do not assume its stored balance has bank deposit protection.
For bank deposits, protection normally comes from the deposit guarantee scheme in the bank's home country.
For a transfer service, check how customer money is safeguarded and avoid leaving a large balance there longer than needed.
When in doubt, use the Banco de Espana register to check the legal entity behind a transfer service.
The exchange rate has a direct impact on how much AWG your recipient gets. A weekly comparison makes it easier to judge today's EUR/AWG rate.
Mid-market rate:1 EUR = 2.04692 AWG
