Glide sends money via traditional banking rails and stablecoin networks. Both run from one screen; pick the rail that’s fastest and cheapest for the corridor you need.

​
Send to a bank account

1

Open the send screen

From the dashboard, tap Send → To bank account.
2

Pick the recipient

Either a saved beneficiary, a new beneficiary, or a phone-book contact. For a new beneficiary, enter their name (matching their bank), account details, and country.
3

Pick the rail

Glide auto-suggests the cheapest rail for the corridor. You can override:
  • Same-currency local rails — ACH, SEPA, Faster Payments, FAST, FPS, NPP. Usually under 2 hours, often instant. Lowest fees.
  • Cross-border SWIFT — correspondent banking. 1–3 business days typical. Higher fees, intermediary banks may deduct.
  • Card-to-card — some corridors only. Real-time, higher fee.
4

See the quote

Before you confirm, you see:
  • The exact fee from Glide.
  • The mid-market FX rate (zero spread from us).
  • The estimated arrival time for the chosen rail.
  • The total amount the recipient will receive.
No surprise deductions on our side.
5

Confirm

Approve with Face ID, passkey, or your two-factor method. The transfer initiates immediately; you’ll get a receipt.

​
Send a stablecoin

USDC and USDT can be sent to any external wallet you control or to anyone else’s wallet.
1

Open the send screen

Tap Send → Stablecoin transfer.
2

Pick the asset and network

Choose USDC or USDT, then the network (Ethereum, Solana, Base, Polygon — full list in supported networks).
3

Enter the destination address

Paste the recipient’s wallet address. Glide validates the address checksum and warns if the network looks wrong (e.g., you pasted an Ethereum address but selected Solana).
4

Review and send

See the network gas estimate. Confirm. Once you approve, the transaction broadcasts to the network; the dashboard tracks it through to settlement.

​
Glide-to-Glide transfers

Sending to another Glide user? Use Send → To another Glide account. Enter their @glide handle, email, or phone number. The transfer is instant, free, and works across any currency.

​
Recurring and scheduled transfers

For payroll, rent, or regular subscriptions, set up a recurring transfer:
  • Daily, weekly, monthly, or custom cadence.
  • Specific days of the month or specific weekdays.
  • Auto-pause if your balance is below a threshold (so you don’t bounce a transfer).
Find these under Send → Schedule for any rail.

​
Approval flows for businesses

Business accounts can require multi-party approval for outbound transfers above a threshold. See Team roles.

​
Fees

Pricing is published at glide.co/pricing. Highlights:
  • Local rails (ACH, SEPA, Faster Payments, etc.) are tiered by amount — small transfers are cheap, larger ones get a slightly higher absolute fee but lower bps.
  • SWIFT has a fixed sender fee from Glide; intermediary banks may deduct independently.
  • Stablecoin transfers have no Glide fee. You pay the network gas.
  • FX is mid-market with zero spread from Glide.
