What's the cheapest way for transferring money to Uganda from South Korea?

One of the most important things to watch out for is hidden fees when sending money to Uganda from South Korea. 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 Uganda using your bank, you are most likely paying high fees. You may also not be getting the best exchange rate on your Ugandan Shilling foreign exchange transaction.

RemitFinder partners with many money transfer companies that provide you with cheap options to ensure you get the best KRW to Uganda 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.

Should I use my bank to transfer money from South Korea to Uganda?

There are two distinct ways that banks make money on international funds transfers. First, by charging steep transaction fees, and second, by providing a low KRW to UGX exchange rate. Sometimes, the actual transaction fee may not be that high, but the rate may be much lower, which essentially means a hidden fee as the cost of the transfer for you still goes up.

Since your obvious goal is to make the most of your hard earned money, you would want to ensure that the receiver of your money gets the maximum amount. One simple way to achieve this is by minimizing the fees on South Korea to Uganda money you send. And, generally, you will not get low fees with banks. Hence, we recommend relying on our real time online money transfer comparison tool to ensure you can compare many options.

Most of the remittance companies today offer bank to bank transfers for sending money to Uganda from South Korea. They do this by letting you fund your transaction through your local bank account in South Korea, and by allowing you to choose the payout to be your recipient's bank account in Uganda. But, you are likely to get much better rates and lower fees compared to your bank.


What is the fastest way to transfer money from South Korea to Uganda?

It could be a stressful experience if you need to rush money quickly from South Korea to Uganda. 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 KRW to UGX. 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 Ugandan Shilling. 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.
