Tips for sending money from United Kingdom to Bangladesh
- 1
Use mobile money: to Bangladesh, money can be delivered straight to bKash, Nagad. A mobile wallet works without a bank account.
- 2
Compare the margin on the exchange rate, not just the stated fees: that is where most of the cost sits. On the corridors we record, the best bank ranges from 0.6% to 5.2% of the amount sent — sometimes cheaper than a specialist, sometimes not.
- 3
Cash pickup: Bangladesh has limited banking access (43% of adults have an account, at a bank or with mobile money — World Bank, Findex 2025). Collecting cash at a branch is often the surest way to be paid — check the service's agent network before sending.
- 4
Avoid sending at weekends: exchange rates are less favourable. Prefer business days for your transfers.
