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 UGX 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 UGX on every transfer from Singapore.

Right now, Key Currency pays 34,188,157.03 UGX on 10,000 SGD, which is 85,684.6 UGX less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 34,946,420.12 UGX.

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 Uganda.

We've tracked 76 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 3 amounts over the past month.

  1. Key CurrencyAppeared in 29 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. Regency FXAppeared in 29 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. XeAppeared in 45 comparisons

    Cheapest in 4% of them

Based on 76 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 Key Currency is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

Ways to send money from Singapore to Uganda

There are 3 ways to send money to Uganda across 3 money transfer companies.

Cheapest way to send money

Online transfers

Sending UGX from Singapore with a specialist like Xe 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.

Xe charges S$0 to send S$10,000, delivering 33,322,300 UGX after a 2.82% 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 Uganda.

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

For example, Key Currency charges an exchange-rate markup of around 0.25% and no fees.

Our analysis shows Key Currency 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.

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.
