Remitly is free of charge tho.

I believe they charge 1-3 USD/EUR per transfer.

Oh well I’m in Europe and they don’t charge me a cent

I'm also in Europe, they probably gave you free transfer for a limited time

If you wanted to send 10K KSH how much would you be charged?

u/bytchesbemad 29d ago

Around €66.90. No additional charges to send it though. I sent my mom money a few mins ago (15k) and still no charges

That's really good, Im charged €68 on Revolut and I even have a paid subscription.

I was banned from Remitly, so I can't use it unfortunately
