Transfer details
If you're sending a one-off transfer, then Revolut is the best option.
For recurring transfers, I'd suggest using an app or a multi-currency account with Revolut.
For large transfers using a broker like Xe is the best option.
How much you send will affect the best option for you right now.
You have 3 ways to pay for your transfer to Greenland, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
Usually, using bank transfer to fund your transfer is the cheapest but slowest option (ACH and takes a day or two).
You can use a debit card, Apple Pay and Google Pay for quicker deposit but its a bit more expensive.
I suggest avoiding credit cards since these are most expensive and have cash advance fees (Amex is very rarely accepted in general).
First time round you'll need to confirm who you are.
An SSN isn't required, an ITIN or a foreign passport works with most companies here.
How much USD you send to Greenland 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.

Mid-market rate: 1 USD = 6.5685 DKK
There are 3 companies available for sending money from the US to Greenland, across app, multi-currency account, global account, online, and broker, and more.
For regular transfers home
If you send a few hundred dollars home every payday, an app is usually the cheapest way and the least work.
Revolut charges $8 on a $2,000 transfer with 0.13% markup, saves your recipient's details for next time, and DKK arrives in within minutes.
Funding from a US bank account or debit card avoids the 1% federal tax that applies to cash-funded transfers.
For one-off transfers
For a one-off transfer, an online service funded from your checking account is usually the cheapest way to send money to Greenland.
Of all online companies listed here, Wise gets you the most DKK per USD.
On a $2,000 transfer, you will get 13,051.53 DKK after a $13.04 fee and 0% markup.
But, bank funding (ACH) takes 1 to 3 business days to clear, while debit cards (and Google Pay/Apple Pay) are usually instant but cost a bit more.
For transfers over $10,000
For large transfers to Greenland (e.g. a property purchase, tuition, or moving to Greenland), a broker like Xe charges no fee, gives you a dedicated account manager, and adds 1.89% markup on USD/DKK that gets lower the more you send.
It's also good to check Wise since you get a bulk discount on transfers over $25,000.
Business payments from the US
Global accounts are for US businesses paying people abroad.
Companies like Airwallex, WorldFirst, or Payoneer handle the recurring and batch payments, invoicing, tracking, and more.
Holding & spending currencies
A multi-currency account like Revolut is the best for holding and receiving DKK.
This is useful for traveling to Greenland, building up DKK balance, or receiving payments in DKK.
Revolut converts $2,000 at 0.13% markup plus small fee and holds the DKK until you spend it.
With Revolut, paying by bank transfer and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending $2,000 gives your recipient 13,067.17 DKK.
Deposit USD by bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
The simplest way is to pay from your US checking account
Pay by bank transfer using your routing and account numbers.
An ACH payment is usually cheaper than a card, but the it may take some time for it to clear before a money transfer company can send the money to Greenland.
Zelle, Venmo and Cash App only support domestic transfers, so they cannot send money to Greenland.
Your recipient in Greenland can collect DKK through bank deposit.

The way you fund the transfer now affects the tax, while US law gives you specific rights if something goes wrong.
Cheapest way to send money to Greenland
The cheapest option is Revolut, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 13,067.17 DKK, which is 0.12% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Greenland
The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 13,067.17 DKK, with the money arriving in within minutes.
Since January 1, 2026, a 1% federal tax applies when an international transfer is funded with cash, a money order, a cashier's check or a traveler's check.
Funding from a US bank account, including ACH, or with a US-issued debit or credit card is exempt.
The rule applies to how you pay in, so your recipient can still collect cash without triggering the tax.
There is no federal cap on how much of your own money you can send electronically abroad.
Your bank or transfer company can set its own limit and ask for proof of where a large or unusual payment came from.
Cash reports and the declaration for physically carrying more than $10,000 across the US border are separate rules.
Do not split cash transactions to avoid a report.
The US Remittance Transfer Rule requires a covered company to show the exchange rate, fees and expected amount received before you pay.
You can normally cancel within 30 minutes at no charge, provided the money has not been deposited or collected.
You also have error-resolution rights if the wrong amount arrives or the transfer never turns up.
Contact the company first and keep the receipt.
For transfers over $10,000, Wise is the best option.
It offers the best exchange rate, which is more important than the fee for large transfers to Greenland.
While Wise may not always be the cheapest or fastest way to send DKK, they offer years of experience, and will offer you the peace of mind you need when sending large amounts abroad.
The rate changes how much DKK your recipient gets for your USD. Recent movement gives you a useful benchmark before you send.
