Provider comparison
Published fees and corridor guidance
Compare the same send amount and funding method in each live quote. The entries below preserve each audited provider disclosure and its publication context.
| Provider | Published fee guidance | Attribution |
|---|---|---|
| Wise | For a representative $1,000 transfer, the corridor page requires a live quote rather than publishing one fixed fee; amount and funding method determine the displayed cost. | as published accessed August 2026Source |
| Remitly | The official corridor page advertises no fee on the first transfer for eligible new customers. Standard $1,000 pricing and the exchange rate still require a live quote. | as published accessed August 2026Source |
| Xoom | For a representative $1,000 transfer, Xoom says it shows the exact fee and recipient amount before send; the public corridor page does not publish one fixed fee. | as published accessed August 2026Source |
| Western Union | The official corridor page advertises a $0 first online or digital transfer fee for eligible new customers; FX earnings, funding-method exclusions, and later fees still apply. | as published accessed August 2026Source |
Receive-side rails
How funds can arrive in Thailand
Compare each provider's Thailand payout method with the documented domestic rails below. Domestic-rail speed is not an end-to-end remittance promise.
PromptPay alias
The official roadmap lists mobile number, national ID, corporate registration number, and e-wallet ID as PromptPay identifiers.
Rail sourceHow to compare and send
- 01
Start with one USD amount
Enter the same USD amount in each live Thailand corridor quote so the comparison uses a consistent input.
- 02
Choose the Thailand payout
Select only a bank, wallet, or pickup method that the provider currently shows for the intended recipient.
- 03
Verify the recipient
Use the exact legal name and destination details requested in the live form, then confirm them with the recipient.
- 04
Compare the complete quote
Review the USD debit, fee, exchange rate, THB delivered, and dated arrival estimate before paying.
- 05
Save and track
Keep the prepayment disclosure, receipt, and reference until the recipient confirms the correct amount arrived.
Limits and compliance checks
Confirm that the provider supports the recipient's chosen PromptPay alias or bank account; the official roadmap does not establish remitter-specific payout coverage.
Compliance sourceRemitly says sending limits vary by sender location, identity-verification status, delivery method, and destination country; use its current limits guide and live corridor flow.

Thailand transfer questions
Sending money to Thailand: FAQs
Which domestic rail matters after THB reaches Thailand?
The Bank of Thailand describes PromptPay as retail payment infrastructure for fund transfers using aliases such as phone numbers and national identification numbers.
Does PromptPay make the whole USA-to-Thailand transfer instant?
No. The official timing describes the domestic Thailand payment leg. USD funding, provider screening, conversion, and release occur before that leg, so use the dated provider estimate.
What recipient details should I confirm for Thailand?
PromptPay can use a mobile number, national ID, corporate registration number, or e-wallet ID, but use only the identifier the selected provider requests.
Which Xoom delivery methods are published for Thailand?
Xoom publishes Thailand bank or debit-card deposit and cash pickup.
Is there a verified local transfer limit for Thailand?
No current universal PromptPay cap was included because the fetched official roadmap did not publish one for all participants.
