How It Works

The Western Union Currency Converter helps you estimate exchange rates and fees for international money transfers through Western Union. This informational tool provides guidance on how Western Union currency conversion works, including exchange rates and typical fees. Enter the amount you want to send, select the destination currency, and get an estimate of what the recipient will receive. Note that actual rates and fees vary by location, transfer method, and current market conditions, so always verify with Western Union directly.

Conversion Formula
Recipient Amount = (Send Amount - Fees) × Exchange Rate

Western Union applies their exchange rate (which includes a markup) and charges fees. The recipient receives the amount after fees are deducted and converted at Western Union's rate, which may differ from market rates.
