Transfer details
For a one-off GBP transfer to Swaziland, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Remitly.
Remitly was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted £1,500 transfers to Swaziland.
On a 1,500 GBP transfer, Remitly delivers the most SZL.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/SZL 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 £1,500 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.
How much GBP you send to Swaziland 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 % of the transfers from £6,000 it quoted, and in 100% 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 SZL per GBP than the mid-market rate can offer.
This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.
No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of SZL on every transfer from UK.
Right now, Remitly pays 32,745 SZL on 1,500 GBP, which is 553.66 SZL less than the mid-market amount.
Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 32,850 SZL.
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 Swaziland.

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.
Xe (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 6% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Swaziland.

There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Swaziland such as limits, taxes, and safety.
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £1,500 transfer to Swaziland:
Cheapest way to send money to Swaziland
The cheapest way is to use Remitly, pay in with a bank transfer and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get E32,745, which is 0.8% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Swaziland
The fastest way is to use TransferGo via bank transfer deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get E31,860.79 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/SZL 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 32,745 SZL, that’s including £1.99 fee and 1.68% in exchange rate markup.
A bank like on the other hand, will get you E0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Swaziland.
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.
