Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $10,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $10,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. 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 IDR per SGD 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 IDR on every transfer from Singapore.

Right now, Regency FX pays 140,979,134.90 IDR on 10,000 SGD, which is 381,674.18 IDR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 141,813,288.58 IDR.

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.

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 Indonesia.

We've tracked 89 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 3 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 30 comparisons

    Cheapest in 53% of them

  2. WiseAppeared in 89 comparisons

    Cheapest in 27% of them

  3. OFXAppeared in 88 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 89 comparisons across 3 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 Regency FX 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 only 27% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Indonesia.

Ways to send money from Singapore to Indonesia

There are 5 ways to send money to Indonesia across 5 money transfer companies.

Cheapest way to send money

Online transfers

Sending IDR from Singapore with a specialist like Wise is quick, easy, and cheap.

You sign up online or through the app, verify account details, enter the amount, fund your transfer, and click send.

Wise charges S$27.86 to send S$10,000, delivering 140,918,305 IDR after a 0.03% markup.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 30 of the 30 days it quoted.

Large transfers from Singapore

Currency brokers

Brokers are the best for large SGD transfers to Indonesia.

A currency broker can quote a lower margin on large SGD to IDR transfers and help with the paperwork and the entire process.

For example, Regency FX charges an exchange-rate markup of around 0.27% and no fees.

Our analysis shows Regency FX was the cheapest broker in 100% of the transfers from S$5,000 it quoted.

Large transfers may be held briefly for Singapore’s anti-scam checks, so if your transfer is time sensitive, start the process a bit earlier.

Regular spending abroad

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account like Wise lets you convert SGD to IDR before travelling or paying your own bills overseas.

And you can hold both currencies in one account.

Wise will get you 140,918,305 IDR after fees when converting 10,000 SGD.

Over the past month, it came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 100% of days.

Things to know before sending SGD to Indonesia

Consider these things before sending money from Singapore to Indonesia.

Compare SGD/IDR transfers

For a S$10,000 transfer to Indonesia, these are the best options to start with:

  1. Cheapest: Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 140,979,134.90 IDR, which is 0.04% more than the next best option.

  2. Fastest: Revolut, funded through bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 140,585,592.13 IDR in within minutes.

SDIC protection

Eligible SGD deposits at participating banks are insured by SDIC up to S$100,000 per depositor and bank.

A balance with a non-bank transfer company is not a bank deposit and does not receive the same cover, even when the company is MAS-licensed.

When unsure, check the legal company in the MAS Financial Institutions Directory before paying.

How we analyse the market

Every company here holds a MAS licence, which you can check yourself on the MAS register.

We track 5 of them on SGD to Indonesia, refreshed in real time on live searches, and compare on the amount that arrives rather than the headline fee.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for SGD/IDR transfers. This is how we pick them:

  • Fastest: the company with the shortest estimated delivery time once you’ve paid. On a tie, the one that pays out more takes priority.
