How to Send Money to Brazil

By Chloe Banks

There are different ways to send money to Brazil. One of these is through having a relationship with an American bank that also has a presence in Brazil.

If the sender and recipient both have accounts with one of these banks, it might be a good idea to open an account locally in Brazil. Money being sent between accounts within the same bank is often processed quickly and at little or no cost.

Transfers between two banks are also pretty easy, but can take much longer with substantially higher costs.

Another way of getting money to Brazil quickly is through a wire transfer. This gets the money to its destination quickly, but fees can be very high and there must be a corresponding bank to receive the wire transfer.

Another way to send money to Brazil is through either an ATM card or a pre-paid debit card. In an emergency this may not be the best method, since it takes time for the card to be sent to the person receiving the funds, but for people who send money regularly to family in Brazil, the pre-paid debit card or ATM card is a good option.

Make sure you have a debit card that will ensure money can be withdrawn from a large network of ATMs in Brazil. If using an ATM card, make sure you trust that the recipient is not accessing funds without your permission. A pre-paid debit card is a safer way to ensure the recipient receives the exact amount of money intended.

In addition, online payment services such as ATM Cash are a popular way to get money to Brazil quickly. Online services allow you to send money 24/7 from your computer and for a less amount of money.

These are some of the safest and most efficient ways of sending money to Brazil. - 16931
