International money transfer means sending funds abroad, whether a remittance to family, a payment to an overseas account or converting SEK into another currency. The key point is that the advertised fee is only part of the cost: providers also add a margin to the exchange rate, so the true price is the gap between what you pay and the mid-market rate.
Within Sweden, Swish handles instant domestic payments but does not send money internationally. For cross-border euro payments, SEPA offers a low-cost route. Beyond that you have three broad options: your bank, specialist FX brokers, and app-based fintechs. Banks are convenient but often carry the widest exchange-rate margins, while specialists and fintechs compete on transparency and tighter rates.
Tighter exchange rates — Specialist brokers and fintechs typically add a smaller margin over the mid-market rate than a traditional bank.
Fee transparency — Many app providers show the fee and the rate upfront before you send.
Speed and convenience — Fintech apps can deliver transfers quickly, sometimes to a mobile wallet or account within minutes.
Always compare the total cost, not just the flat fee: add the transaction fee to the exchange-rate margin and check the amount that will actually arrive. For large one-off amounts, an FX broker may negotiate a better rate; for smaller regular remittances, an app fintech is often cheaper and faster. Confirm delivery speed, the payout method available in the destination country, and that the provider is properly licensed.
Options on the panel range from specialist currency brokers such as TorFX, to established remittance networks like Western Union, to app-first fintechs including Remitly, WorldRemit, bunq Sverige, Lunar Sverige and N26. Handelsbanken represents the traditional bank route. Specialists and fintechs tend to lead on price and transparency, while banks offer the familiarity of your existing account.
Cost has two components: the upfront fee and the exchange-rate margin baked into the quoted rate. A transfer advertised as fee-free can still be expensive if the rate is poor, so compare the final delivered amount across providers. SEPA payments in euro are usually the cheapest way to send within the euro area.
Money-transfer and payment providers operating in Sweden are authorised as payment institutions and supervised by Finansinspektionen, with consumer protection overseen by Konsumentverket. Note that funds in transit are not bank deposits, so insättningsgarantin does not apply; instead, licensed payment institutions must safeguard customer funds under regulatory rules.
Can I use Swish to send money abroad? — No. Swish is for domestic Swedish payments only.
Why is a fee-free transfer sometimes expensive? — Because the provider may add a margin to the exchange rate; always compare the amount that actually arrives.
Bank or specialist? — Specialist brokers and fintechs usually offer tighter rates and clearer fees than a traditional bank.
Giraffy tracks 5 prepaid FX and travel money cards across TorFX,Western Union,Handelsbanken,Remitly,WorldRemit providers in Sweden. Compare by the mid-market exchange rate margin and ATM withdrawal fees to find the lowest total cost.
A prepaid travel card is loaded with a specific currency (or multiple currencies) before you travel. You lock in an exchange rate at loading time, protecting against rate movements. Unlike a regular debit card, there are no overdraft risks, and many travel cards offer better exchange rates than high-street banks.
Most prepaid travel cards allow ATM withdrawals abroad, but fee structures vary — some offer a free monthly ATM allowance, others charge per withdrawal. Check the ATM fee, daily withdrawal limit, and whether your chosen card is accepted by ATM networks at your destination.
Multi-currency cards typically support 40–50 currencies, covering all major travel destinations. Lesser-used currencies may not be available — check the provider's currency list if you're travelling to an unusual destination. Some cards auto-convert at the point of sale if the local currency isn't loaded.
Yes — a prepaid card can be frozen via an app immediately if lost or stolen, protecting your remaining balance. You're not liable for fraudulent transactions in most cases. Keeping a small amount of local cash as backup is still advisable for markets where card acceptance is limited.
Key fees to check: loading fees (some charge to add funds), ATM withdrawal fees, inactivity fees if the card isn't used for 12+ months, and a small exchange rate margin on the mid-market rate. Some premium providers (Wise, Revolut Metal) offer fee-free loading and ATM withdrawals up to monthly limits.
