Haven’t sent money with Xe in the past? Need a quick reminder? Let’s take a quick look at what our money transfers to Costa Rica used to be like, before we introduced these recent changes. 

  • Your money would typically reach Costa Rica within 1-4 business days.

  • Your exchange rate depended on currency market motion.

But that’s not the case anymore. Now, when you send money to Costa Rica, you can rely on the following:

  • Your money will arrive much sooner. No need to wait several days, or even several hours. With our new transfer channels, your money will reach Costa Rica in real time.

  • New, competitive rates. Our new transfers will give you fair, competitive rates for your coming exchanges, straight from the live currency markets.
