How to send money from US to Pakistan

Pick a company

If you're sending a one-off transfer, then WorldRemit is the best option.

WorldRemit was the cheapest on 10 of the 22 days it quoted $7,000 transfers to Pakistan.

For recurring transfers, I'd suggest using an app or a multi-currency account with WorldRemit.

For large transfers, a broker like Regency FX is the best option.

If your recipient needs cash, MoneyGram is the cheapest.

How much you send will affect the best option for you right now.

Pay for it

You have 4 ways to pay for your transfer to Pakistan, including bank transfer, debit card, credit card, and cash deposit.

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).

Check and send

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.

Compare amounts

How much USD are you sending to Pakistan?

Exchange rateFeeRecipient getsDifference

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send $7,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what $7,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. The bank line is the cheapest bank available on each day.

Understanding USD/PKR exchange rate

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 PKR per USD than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 24 of the last 30 days.

Right now, WorldRemit pays 1,949,890.59 PKR on 7,000 USD, which is 9,250.45 PKR more than the mid-market amount, so it's a good deal (pretty much free money).

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 1,950,298.64 PKR.

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.

If you need to send money now, it's a good time to send.

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 Pakistan.

We've tracked 207 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 8 amounts over the past month.

  1. WorldRemitAppeared in 102 comparisons

    Cheapest in 34% of them

  2. MoneyGramAppeared in 205 comparisons

    Cheapest in 54% of them

  3. Regency FXAppeared in 117 comparisons

    Cheapest in 3% of them

  4. ChaseAppeared in 207 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

Based on 207 comparisons across 8 amounts over the last 30 days.

Is the cheapest money transfer company always the best?

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 analyze companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today WorldRemit is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

MoneyGram (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 54% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Pakistan regularly, it's worth comparing it with WorldRemit before each transfer.

Ways to send money from the US to Pakistan

There are 8 companies available for sending money from the US to Pakistan, across app, online, broker, in person, multi-currency account, global account, and bank, and more.

For regular transfers home

Money transfer apps

If you send a few hundred dollars home every payday, an app is usually the cheapest way and the least work.

WorldRemit charges $1.99 on a $7,000 transfer with -0.5% markup, saves your recipient's details for next time, and PKR arrives in minutes - 2 days.

Over the past month, WorldRemit was the cheapest app on 45% of the days it appeared for $7,000 transfers.

Funding from a US bank account or debit card avoids the 1% federal tax that applies to cash-funded transfers.

Sending without a US bank account

Cash & in-person transfers

Paying in cash at an agent can work without a US bank account.

The ID accepted depends on the company and the amount, so check before visiting if you do not have an SSN.

Hand $7,000 to a MoneyGram agent in the US, and your recipient will get 1,937,615.4 PKR in minutes - 24 hours.

Our data shows MoneyGram came out cheapest among in-person options on 100% of days in the past month.

However, transfers funded with cash or a money order carry a 1% federal tax since January 1, 2026. To avoid it, fund with a debit card or bank account instead (most agents take both).

For one-off transfers

Online transfers

For a one-off transfer, an online service funded from your checking account is usually the cheapest way to send money to Pakistan.

Of all online companies listed here, MoneyGram gets you the most PKR per USD.

On a $7,000 transfer, you will get 1,937,615.4 PKR after a $0 fee and 0.16% markup.

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

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

Currency brokers

For large transfers to Pakistan (e.g. a property purchase, tuition, or moving to Pakistan), a broker like Regency FX charges no fee, gives you a dedicated account manager, and adds 0.27% markup on USD/PKR that gets lower the more you send.

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

It's also good to check Wise since you get a bulk discount on transfers over $25,000.

Only if you have to

Banks

Wiring money abroad from your bank is the most expensive option.

On a $7,000 transfer, a bank like Chase gets your recipient 1,870,050 PKR, against 1,949,890.59 PKR with WorldRemit (the overall cheapest option).

We found Chase was the cheapest bank on 30 of the 30 days it appeared for this amount.

The wire "feels" official, but regulated money transfer companies are just as safe with their own protection and rules.

Business payments from the US

Global accounts

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

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account like Wise is the best for holding and receiving PKR.

This is useful for traveling to Pakistan, building up PKR balance, or receiving payments in PKR.

Wise converts $7,000 at 0.13% markup plus small fee and holds the PKR until you spend it.

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

Ways to fund USD and receive PKR in Pakistan

With WorldRemit, paying by debit card and receiving through bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending $7,000 gives your recipient 1,949,890.59 PKR.

Our data shows that WorldRemit gets your recipient 79,840.59 PKR more than Chase, today's cheapest bank, on the same $7,000.

Deposit USD by bank transfer, debit card, credit card, and cash deposit.

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 it may take some time for it to clear before a money transfer company can send the money to Pakistan.

You can deposit cash

You'll need to visit the nearest MoneyGram branch and hand over $7,000.

MoneyGram is the cheapest option and will get you 1,937,615.4 PKR on a $7,000 transfer after fees.

Transfers funded with physical cash are subject to the 1% US remittance transfer tax, but funding from a US bank account or with a US-issued debit or credit card is exempt.

Zelle, Venmo and Cash App only support domestic transfers, so they cannot send money to Pakistan.

Your recipient in Pakistan can collect PKR through bank deposit, cash pickup, mobile wallet, and mobile money.

They can collect cash in Pakistan

Your recipient can collect PKR from a participating MoneyGram location in Pakistan.

They should take a valid photo ID and the collection reference, and check that the name on the transfer matches their ID.

Things to consider before sending USD to Pakistan

The way you fund the transfer now affects the tax, while US law gives you specific rights if something goes wrong.

Find the right USD/PKR company

Cheapest way to send money to Pakistan

The cheapest option is WorldRemit, funded by debit card with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 1,949,890.59 PKR, which is 0.63% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Pakistan

The fastest option is TapTap Send. Pay by debit card and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 1,925,000 PKR, with the money arriving in minutes.

Cash-funded transfers now carry a 1% tax

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.

The $10,000 rule is not a transfer limit

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.

You normally have 30 minutes to cancel

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.

The CFPB explains the cancellation and error process.

Need to send a large amount of USD to Pakistan?

For transfers over $10,000, WorldRemit is the best option.

It offers the best exchange rate, which is more important than the fee for large transfers to Pakistan.

While WorldRemit may not always be the cheapest or fastest way to send PKR, they offer years of experience, and will offer you the peace of mind you need when sending large amounts abroad.

How we analyze the market

We track, save, and analyze the cost, speed, and product offerings of the leading money transfer services available between Pakistan and United States.

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