side. What you need to be aware of is there are two fees to making an international payment with the bank:<\/p><ul><li>A Starling transfer fee of 0.4%<\/li><li>A delivery fee<\/li><\/ul><p>How much the delivery fee is, depends on which option you choose. If you select a priority delivery via SWIFT, then you will be charged \u00a35.50. However, there is a low-cost local network option, where fees start from \u00a30.30 depending on the currency. <\/p><p>Starling will always show you the exchange rate, the fee and what your recipient will receive. So it\u2019s possible to compare the cost against other money transfer providers before you hit send. <\/p><h3>What are Starling\u2019s international transfer exchange rates?<\/h3><p>To make up for its transfer fees, Starling\u2019s international transfer exchange rates are pretty competitive. Most money transfer providers will add a margin to the mid-market rate, which is the rate banks trade between themselves. However, Starling\u2019s exchange rates are pretty close to the mid-market rate for all the major currencies. <\/p><h3>Starling international transfers pros and cons<\/h3><div class=\"fin-pros-cons\">\n            <div class=\"fin-pros-cons__section\">\n            <h4 class=\"fin-pros-cons__heading\">Pros<\/h4>\n            <ul class=\"icon-list icon-list--check-circle\">\n                                    <li><b>Most transfers use the interbank rate.<\/b> Usually the best rate going, Starling sticks pretty close to the mid-market rate.<\/li>\n                                    <li><b>Easy to use app.<\/b> Starling is already known for its user experience and you can expect the same when it comes to making international payments with the digital banking app.<\/li>\n                                    <li><b>Transparent pricing.<\/b> You will know how much your recipient will receive before hitting send.<\/li>\n                            <\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    \n            <div class=\"fin-pros-cons__section\">\n            <h4 class=\"fin-pros-cons__heading\">Cons<\/h4>\n            <ul class=\"icon-list icon-list--x-circle\">\n                                    <li><b>Transfer fees.<\/b> Fees can be on the high side, especially if you prioritise speed over cost and use its SWIFT delivery option.<\/li>\n                                    <li><b>Limited currencies.<\/b> Compared to some of the specialist money transfer providers, Starling\u2019s range seems particularly limited at 37 countries in 21 currencies.<\/li>\n                                    <li><b>Weekday only.<\/b> Starling only processes payments from 02:00 Monday to 20:00 Friday.<\/li>\n                                    <li><b>No forex tools.<\/b> If you're sending a large sum, you may wish to explore more advanced forex features like rate triggers (where your exchange executes if the exchange rate reaches a figure of your choosing).

It is also regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and adheres to the Contingent Reimbursement Model (CRM) cost. This means that in most cases, it will refund any unauthorised payments made from your account and refund you if you\u2019re tricked into sending money to a scammer voluntarily. The exception is if you\u2019re negligent. <\/p><p>As you can see, Starling is all above board. It was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in London. <\/p><h3>The verdict: Are Starling international transfers any good?<\/h3><p>If you are looking for easy, then Starling has you covered. Its international payments sit nicely in its app, where you can have the same user experience as all its other services. However, if you\u2019re looking for a cheaper, more wide ranging service (or one that\u2019s open at weekends), then you\u2019re better off looking at a more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/international-money-transfers\">specialised money transfer provider<\/a>.
