How to send money from Philippines to Papua New Guinea

Pick a company

For a one-off transfer from the Philippines, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is Wise.

Wise was the cheapest on 30 of the 30 days it quoted ₱14,700 transfers to Papua New Guinea.

On a 14,700 PHP transfer, Wise delivers the most PGK.

This will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest running a live search to get the best PHP/PGK rate.

Use the filters above if your recipient needs cash rather than a bank deposit.

Fund your transfer

You have 1 ways to pay for the transfer: bank transfer.

Depending on the company, you can use InstaPay which takes seconds to deposit.

Above about a million pesos it goes through PESONet instead, which can take a day.

Verify and send

First time round you'll need a valid ID and your details to match it exactly.

Make sure you do it before you need to send PGK to avoid any delays.

PHP/PGK Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from Philippines to Papua New Guinea?

The cheapest way to send PHP to PGK can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Wise), across 30 days of comparisons for 14,700 PHP transfers to Papua New Guinea.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ₱14,700, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ₱14,700 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 PGK per PHP 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 PGK on every transfer from Philippines.

Right now, Wise pays 962.44 PGK on 14,700 PHP, which is 67.69 PGK less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 980.74 PGK.

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.

Cheapest over time

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Papua New Guinea.

We've tracked 138 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 6 amounts over the past month.

WiseAppeared in 138 comparisons
Cheapest in 75% of them
PayPal App (P2P Transfer)Appeared in 75 comparisons
Cheapest in 7% of them
MoneyGram AgentAppeared in 75 comparisons
Never the cheapest

Based on 138 comparisons across 6 amounts over the last 30 days.

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 Wise is the cheapest and gets you the most PGK, and it was also the cheapest in 75% of the 138 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.

It's a good pick for both one-off and regular transfers to Papua New Guinea.

PayPal App (P2P Transfer) (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 7% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Papua New Guinea.

Both rails send PHP domestically to the company's account before they send it to Papua New Guinea.

Check this before sending PHP to Papua New Guinea

A few things to remember about money transfers from Philippines to Papua New Guinea.

Compare PHP/PGK transfer services

Cheapest way to send money to Papua New Guinea

The cheapest option is Wise, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 962.44 PGK, which is 3.41% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Papua New Guinea

The fastest option is PayPal App (P2P Transfer). Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 929.59 PGK, with collection available in minutes.

A large gift can trigger donor's tax

The Philippines charges 6% donor's tax on total taxable gifts above PHP 250,000 in a calendar year.

The donor pays it, even when the person receiving the money lives abroad.

BIR Form 1800 is due within 30 days of the gift.

This does not make every family payment a taxable donation, but a large personal gift should be checked before sending.

The BIR's Form 1800 guidance explains the threshold, rate and filing deadline.

Philippine payment rails

InstaPay, PESONet, Maya, etc. move PHP between Philippine accounts only.

Some companies allow these as funding methods, but none of them can be used to send international transfers to Papua New Guinea.

GCash can be used for international transfers, but it is limited and usually more expensive.

PDIC protection

PDIC protects eligible deposits held with a member bank.

It does not protect a transfer after the money has left your bank or a balance held with a non-bank transfer company.

If a BSP-supervised company does not resolve a complaint, you can escalate it through the BSP Online Buddy.
