What the review covers — Dotcom Dollar
Key points from Dotcom Dollar’s review, an expat's honest recommendations — plus the full video below.
Allan Borch (Dotcom Dollar) shares which international money transfer services he actually recommends after 9 years as an expat — for small transfers, large transfers and cash pickup.
The theme: the best app depends on the transfer — Wise for transparent rates, Remitly/WorldRemit for remittances and cash pickup, OFX for large amounts.
The point: the real cost is the exchange-rate markup plus fees — compare the total amount that lands, not just the advertised fee.
The takeaway: match the service to your transfer size and destination, and compare the final received amount. (Not financial advice.)
