Transfer details
For a one-off GBP transfer to Israel, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Key Currency.
Key Currency was the cheapest on 25 of the 28 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Israel.
On a 6,000 GBP transfer, Key Currency delivers the most ILS.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/ILS rate.
You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
Paying from your bank is usually both cheapest and quickest, since most companies connect straight into 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 £6,000 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.
How much GBP you send to Israel 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 Key Currency was the cheapest in 88% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted, and in 88% of all the transfers it quoted.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £6,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £6,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. The bank line is the cheapest bank available on each day.
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 ILS 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 2 of the last 30 days.
Right now, Key Currency pays 24,536.58 ILS on 6,000 GBP, which is 61.49 ILS less than the mid-market amount.
Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 24,902.87 ILS.
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.
Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Israel.

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 Key Currency is the cheapest and gets you the most ILS, and it was also the cheapest in 88% of the 98 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.
It's a good pick for both one-off and regular transfers to Israel.
Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 0% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Israel.
There are many ways to send money to Israel from the UK, including broker, online, app, global account, multi-currency account, and bank, and more.
For small & frequent transfers
If you send small amounts back home to Israel, say weekly or monthly, an app like Wise is the easiest and cheapest way to do it.
It charges £27.29 in fees, has -0.01% markup, lets you save recipient details, and ILS will arrive in minutes.
Over the past month, Wise was the cheapest app on 93% of the days it appeared for £6,000 transfers.
For one off transfers
Sending money online is good for occasional medium sized ILS transfers, around £1,000 - £5,000.
Online companies like Wise often have higher limits and/or first time promos.
Of the 9 companies we compared, Wise is the cheapest online service and will get you ₪24,487.33 on a £6,000 transfer.
In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 28 of the 30 days it quoted.
For large transfers
Currency brokers like Key Currency 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 Israel, and 24/7 support.
Key Currency charges no fees on large transfers, but adds 0.25% markup on top of the current GBP/ILS rate.
The markup gets better the more GBP you send, so we suggest .
Our analysis shows Key Currency was the cheapest broker in 89% of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted.
For spending and receiving
Multi-currency accounts let you hold and spend New Israeli Sheqel abroad like a local.
Wise offers the best multi-currency account.
With it, converting £6,000 to ILS will get you ₪24,487.33 after fees.
If you don’t have ILS in your account, your GBP will auto-convert whenever you pay with Wise in Israel.
Once you have ILS 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 Israel, companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle batch and recurring payments a consumer app simply can’t.
Only if you have to
Your UK bank is the most expensive way to send money to Israel.
On a £6,000 transfer, banks like Barclays will add 2.78% markup, getting you ₪23,923.81 vs ₪24,536.58 with Key Currency.
We found Barclays was the cheapest bank on 25 of the 26 days it appeared for this amount.
Pay-in and pay-out methods will affect how much GBP you deposit and how much ILS your recipient gets. Use the table below to see how different options change how much you pay and what they get.
Our data shows that Key Currency gets your recipient 612.77 ILS more than Barclays, today's cheapest bank, on the same £6,000.
The overall best and cheapest way to send £6,000 to Israel is via Key Currency, using a bank transfer to deposit GBP and bank deposit to receive ILS.
You have 3 pay-in options for transfers to Israel, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
The cheapest pay-in option is bank transfer.
The fastest option in the UK is almost always bank transfer, since most companies use Open Banking and Faster Payments System (FPS).
The most expensive deposit option is credit card.
Be careful with credit card deposits, since your bank often treats it as a cash advance and will charge interest.
Money can reach Israel by bank deposit, and each delivery method comes with its own fees.
The cheapest way to receive money in Israel is with bank deposit on average.
Digital wallets
Your recipient can receive ILS directly into a digital wallet (like PayPal) which usually takes a few minutes to arrive.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Israel such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £6,000 transfer to Israel:
Cheapest way to send money to Israel
The cheapest way is to use Key Currency, pay in with a bank transfer and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get ₪24,536.58, which is 0.02% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Israel
The fastest way is to use Wise via bank transfer deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get ₪24,487.33 and it will arrive in within 3 hours.
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/ILS 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 £6,000 with Key Currency will get you 24,536.58 ILS, that’s including £0 fee and 0.25% in exchange rate markup.
A bank like Barclays on the other hand, will get you ₪23,923.81, that’s £0 in fees but 2.78% in FX fees.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Israel.
And, regular gifts out of your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, no cap and no seven-year wait.
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.
