Using KES Rates for Money Transfers

While the reference rates displayed on Kredly provide a good indication of the market value of KES, the actual amount you receive when making an international money transfer will likely differ. This is because money transfer providers apply their own exchange rates, which often include a margin, and may also charge transfer fees.

Kredly's comparison service helps you find providers offering competitive rates and low fees for your specific KES transfer needs, allowing you to see how much your recipient will actually receive.
