Below, we provide detailed data-driven insights on various factors that influence the total cost of your Jordan to Syria money transfers.
📈 JOD to SYP exchange rate is often the biggest driver of both cost and payout
The exchange rate on your Jordan to Syria money transfers is usually the single biggest factor that will determine your overall JOD cost and your recipient's SYP payout.
To analyze exchange rates, we will rely on the exchange rate markup (also called FX margin) which is the difference between the mid-market exchange rate
Based on historical pricing data for a JOD 140 money transfer benchmark, we see the following FX markup ranges for Jordanian Dinar to Syria transfers:
- Average markup: 13.03%
- Median markup: 11.41%
- Lowest markup: 0.00%
- Highest markup: 34.31%
That is a spread of 34.31 percentage points between the lowest and highest observed FX markups.
To put this into perspective, on a JOD 140 transfer, the above markup range is equivalent to roughly SYP 48.03 purely from differences in the exchange rate. That incremental saving increases to SYP 120.09 for a JOD 350 transfer.
🛠️ How to use this insight: When comparing providers for Jordan to Syria remittances, pay close attention to the exchange rate you receive. A small difference in the FX markup can quickly outweigh other factors like fees, and the gap generally grows as transfer amounts increase.
JOD to SYP exchange rate can be the single most critical factor that determines the cost of your transfer. When comparing providers, keep an eye on the rate you will get.
💰 Transfer fees affect your total Jordan to Syria remittance cost
Whilst exchange rate is a major factor affecting total transfer cost, the transfer fee can also have a big impact on how much of your Jordanian Dinar reaches your recipient in Syria.
Based on data from last 5 years, we notice the below about Jordanian Dinar to Syria money transfer fees:
- Average fee: JOD 2.11
- Median fee: JOD 2.00
- Lowest fee: JOD 1.00
- Highest fee: JOD 7.00
The average fee amount of JOD 2.11 noted above represents 1.50% of the total amount sent.
Also note that even if two providers provide the same exchange rate, a best vs worst case transfer fee can increase the payout by JOD 6.00.
🛠️ How to use this insight: For your next money transfer from Jordan to Syrian Pound, look for providers that provide lower (or even 0) fees.
One caveat to this, though, is something called the hidden fee. Some providers may hide their real fees by offering a 0 or low fee, but providing a lower exchange rate. The money lost due to an inferior FX rate affects your bottom line and is referred to as a hidden fee. Therefore, you should also keep an eye on rates whilst paying attention to fees.
Another point that you should keep in mind is that for larger transfers, fixed fees become a lesser percentage of total amount. But for smaller transfers, fees can be a major part of total cost.

To avoid overpaying for your transfer, compare money transfer providers.

Historical JOD to SYP exchange rate markup ranges from 0.00% to 34.31%, a spread of 34.31 percentage points. Even small differences in the exchange rate markup can impact your final payout significantly.
Is the exchange rate or the transfer fee more important for Jordan to Syria transfers?
Exchange rate markup ranges from 0.00% to 34.31% (a spread of 34.31 percentage points).

As the transfer amount increases, the % impact of fees decreases (because the fee gets spread across a larger JOD amount), whilst exchange rate markup remains a percentage-based cost that can scale with transfer size.
