Will I be charged for using this service?
All international payments made through TransferMate are completely free of charge although you may be charged by your bank for making a local transaction, this is unfortunately out of our control. Domestic transactions are subject to a $20 fee to cover costs. 

Why do I need to provide identification?

How long does a transaction take?
Once TransferMate has received your payment into the local bank account in your country, TransferMate sends your payment the same day from our account to your institution. These payments are generally received by your institution the same day if payments are received into our local account in your country before 2pm GMT.

Your payments will automatically be posted to your student account within 24-48 hours from payment completion.
