Foreign exchange rates are highly volatile, and it may seem difficult to decide the best timing for your next transfer to Burundi from Oman.

Question 3

What's the cheapest way to send money to Burundi from Oman?

Accepted Answer

One of the most important things to watch out for is hidden fees when sending money to Burundi from Oman. Most of the time, you will get ripped off if you have no choice, or very few choices. For instance, if you send money to Burundi using your bank, you are most likely paying high fees. You may also not be getting the best exchange rate on your Burundian Franc foreign exchange transaction.

RemitFinder partners with many money transfer companies that provide you with cheap options to ensure you get the best OMR to Burundi exchange rate. The more choices you have, the better yield you get. This is because you can get creative with exchange rates and fees to determine the cheapest option for you. For instance, one company may be giving a very high rate but charging a steep fee as well, while another provider may have a slightly lower rate, but 0 fee. All of this also depends on how much amount you send. It is very much possible that as the transaction amount varies, one money transfer operator gives a better return than the other, and vice versa.

Our partners also provide our customers with many offers and promotions. These could be seasonal (around key holidays and festivals) or ongoing. Making use of these deals will further reduce your cost, and help ensure you use the cheapest way to send money to Burundi from Oman.

Question 4

Should I use my bank to send money from Oman to Burundi?

Accepted Answer

Bank transfers have been a traditionally popular way to send money overseas from Oman to Burundi. But, with the explosion of so many Fintech startups specializing in remittances, it is worth asking yourself if you should still be using your bank for sending funds internationally.

In general, banks tend to charge much higher fees compared to newer remittance companies that specialize in online operations. It is also possible that the OMR to BIF exchange rate you get from your bank may not be the best. In fact, high fees and below par exchange rates are two of the most popular ways banks make money on remittances.

We, therefore, recommend that before you use your Oman bank for your Burundi money transfers, you explore various other options to carefully review your total cost (represented by transaction fees) as well as the exchange rate you will get. Combined, these two factors will have a direct impact on how much money your recipient gets from your transaction.

Question 5

How to send money to Burundi from Oman fast?

Accepted Answer

It could be a stressful experience if you need to rush money quickly from Oman to Burundi. How do you decide which option to pick to ensure your funds arrive at the destination in the fastest possible way?

First, you should ensure that you are picking the right payment method to convert OMR to BIF. Most remittance companies will allow you to pay by cash, with credit or debit cards, via a direct bank transfer, through a wire transfer, and so on. Digital payment methods like wire transfers and bank transfers will certainly delay your transaction as compared to cash payments.

Similarly, on the receiving side, your recipient also has multiple options to collect their monies in Burundian Franc. The payout choices generally include cash pickup, direct bank transfer, loading up a mobile wallet, and mobile airtime top up. If transaction speed is important, you could choose cash pickup if the receiver can access a close by pickup location. Just be aware that the exchange rate on cash transactions may not be the best, and there is risk in handling cash, especially for larger amounts. Otherwise, a mobile airtime top up or a bank deposit may be the next fastest possible ways unless there are bank holidays going on.

Foreign exchange transaction speed also depends on some additional factors like transfer amount, compliance and regulatory processes and vary from provider to provider.
