- 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.

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.
