What is the
best Business Send Money conversion rate for SGD to USD?

significantly between banks and also between currency exchange providers,
it's therefore important to carefully compare
Singapore dollar (SGD) to US dollar (USD) rates from different sources before making a conversion.
The above
Revolut - Business Singapore dollar to Dollar comparison table
makes it easy to compare the Total Fees (both variable and fixed) you are being charged by
Revolut and other foreign exchange providers against the latest SGD-USD mid-rate and the possible savings of using various providers.
How do Revolut SGD-USD rates compare between providers?
The next best is XE at 0.7753, -0.6% from the mid-rate.
Then Wise at 0.7753, which is -0.6% from the mid-rate.
Among the banks the CIMB Bank rate is 0.7525 at -3.5% the OCBC Bank rate is 0.759 at -2.7% and the Maybank rate is 0.7527 at -3.5% compared to the mid-rate 0.7800.
It's important to note that exchange rates also fluctuate frequently due to market conditions. Additionally,
banks and foreign exchange providers often apply a margin to the exchange rate, resulting in a less favorable rate for customers compared to the mid-market rate.
For more competitive rates, you might consider using a specialized currency exchange service
like Revolut or platforms that offer rates closer to the mid-market rate.
