Transfer details
For a one-off GBP transfer to Angola, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Remitly.
Remitly was the cheapest on 14 of the 30 days it quoted £1,500 transfers to Angola.
On a 1,500 GBP transfer, Remitly delivers the most AOA.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/AOA rate.
You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
Paying from your bank is usually the fastest, since most companies connect to your banking app via Open Banking.
Anywhere a debit card works, Apple Pay and Google Pay usually do too.
First time round you'll need to confirm your name, date of birth, address and a photo ID.
On a £1,500 transfer the verification is normally instant but can take a couple of hours.
How much GBP you send to Angola 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.
Our analysis shows Remitly was the cheapest in 50% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted, and in 58% of all the transfers it quoted.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £1,500, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £1,500 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 AOA per GBP 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 15 of the last 30 days.
Right now, Remitly pays 1,852,365 AOA on 1,500 GBP, which is 526.02 AOA more than the mid-market amount, so it's a good deal (pretty much free money).
Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 1,854,855 AOA.
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.
If you need to send money now, it's a good time to send.
Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Angola.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.
To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).
Today Remitly is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.
Wise (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 62% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Angola regularly, it's worth comparing it with Remitly before each transfer.
There are many ways to send money to Angola from the UK, including online, app, in person, SNPL, digital wallet, multi-currency account, global business account, and currency broker, and more.
For small & frequent transfers
If you send small amounts back home to Angola, say weekly or monthly, an app like Remitly is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
It charges £0 in fees, has -0.03% markup, lets you save recipient details, and AOA will arrive in minutes.
Over the past month, Remitly was the cheapest app on 47% of the days it appeared for £1,500 transfers.
For one off transfers
Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized AOA transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.
Online companies like Remitly often have higher limits and/or first time promos.
Of the 5 companies we compared, Remitly is the cheapest online service and will get you Kz1,852,365 on a £1,500 transfer.
In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 14 of the 30 days it quoted.
For large transfers
Currency brokers like Xe are the best for £10,000+ transfers (things like house deposits, education fees, relocation, etc.).
You get a dedicated account manager to handle your transfer to Angola, and real human support.
Xe charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 2.05% markup on top of the current GBP/AOA rate.
The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .
Our analysis shows Xe was the cheapest broker in 13% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted.
For spending and receiving
Multi-currency accounts let you hold and spend Kwanza abroad like a local.
Wise offers the best multi-currency account.
With it, converting £1,500 to AOA will get you Kz1,843,492.16 after fees.
If you don’t have AOA in your account, your GBP will auto-convert whenever you pay with Wise in Angola.
Once you have AOA in the account, there are no extra fees from Wise for spending or holding it (local ATM charges may still apply).
Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.
For business transfers
Global accounts are for UK businesses making payments overseas.
For suppliers, freelancers, salaries, or invoices in Angola, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.
Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much AOA your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.
The overall best and cheapest way to send £1,500 to Angola is via Remitly, using a debit card to deposit GBP and bank deposit to receive AOA.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Angola such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £1,500 transfer to Angola:
Cheapest way to send money to Angola
The cheapest way is to use Remitly, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get Kz1,852,365, which is 0.48% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Angola
The fastest way is to use TransferGo via bank transfer deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get Kz1,812,361.89 and it will arrive in within an hour.
There is no legal limit and no tax on sending your own money abroad.
Main hard limits come from your bank or money transfer company, often around £10,000 to £25,000 online (which you can usually increase in the app).
Also, the "£10,000 declaration" only applies to physically carrying cash through the border, not online transfers.
And on bigger GBP/AOA transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.
These are anti-money-laundering checks, and they can hold your transfer up, so have the documents ready.
Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.
For example, sending £1,500 with Remitly will get you 1,852,365 AOA, that’s including £0 fee and -0.03% in exchange rate markup.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Angola.
And, regular gifts from your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, with no cap and no seven-year wait, as long as you can still cover your usual living costs.
Only ever use a provider authorised by the FCA, which you can check on the FCA register in under a minute.
The rules in place for any scams cover domestic pound transfers only, on a transfer abroad you're less protected.
Always confirm who you're really sending to before you send, because there's little recourse after.
