Sending Money Abroad for Christmas
We've blinked and it's December! The month of celebrating, over-indulging and over-spending!
Christmas is just around the corner and you're probably in the process of organising your gift list if you haven't already made one. Having friends and family overseas can make the gift-buying process even more complicated. Will the gift arrive in one piece, if at all? What if it's delayed and doesn't get there in time?
Ease the pressure and as an alternative, let them choose their own gift and send money instead!
Using Startup Overseas to send money abroad for Christmas means if you're making a Euro, US Dollar, British Pound or Canadian Dollar transfer, you have up until 24th December to arrange your payment! (Perfect for those a little less organised). All other currencies take up to 3 working days to reach the beneficiary account.
Using us instead of your bank means the recipient will receive more money because our exchange rates are much more competitive and what's more, you'll have complete visibility of the journey of your payment using your online account.
Register for our service now and make payments easily and efficiently over the Christmas period.
