OFX does not have a minimum transfer amount in Singapore. However, for any transfer that is less than SG$10,000 a fee of SG$15 (or the foreign currency equivalent) will be charged.
For more information visit our transfer fees FAQ or please reach out to your OFXpert.
You can enter your recipient details into your OFX account before booking your transfer or at the time of booking.
Once you’ve saved your recipient details, you won’t need to enter them again. They’ll be readily available every time you need to send funds to that recipient.
It’s good practice to always double-check the recipient details are correct when you’re first adding them.
With OFX you can transfer most currencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (even if the foreign exchange market is closed).
Feel free to transfer at any time that suits your needs.
Please note: rates and speed of transfer can change from weekdays to weekends. Learn more about weekend rates.
At OFX, we always strive to make your transfers fast and secure. So if your funds haven’t arrived yet, and you believe they should have, the best first step is to ensure you received your Funds Paid email from OFX. This email is to confirm we have sent the funds to your recipient - not that the recipient has received the funds yet.
Once the funds have been sent by OFX, there is a processing time before the funds are available to them.
Major currencies usually take up to 1-2 business days to arrive while exotic currencies typically take up to 1-3 business days.
If this time has passed, the next step is to reach out to your recipient to confirm they haven’t received the funds. Once you’ve confirmed that your recipient did not receive the funds, have your recipient contact their bank for more details and give your OFXpert a call to help investigate further.
Leave it with us, we’ll take care of the rest and update you each step of the way. Don’t forget, you can also track your transfer in your OFX account. Read more about tracking your transfer. If you need additional information, contact an OFXpert.
OFX cannot accept money transfers via debit card, cash, or check. This helps us ensure that each transfer is as fast and secure as possible.
For convenient and secure payment methods, visit our money transfers page or log in to your OFX account to view money transfer options beneath OFX bank details.

When you choose OFX to transfer money, you can send as much currency as you need to. We do not enforce maximum transfer limits. Bank daily transfer limits may apply, please check with your banking partner.

The Market Rate, also known as the “interbank rate” or the “mid-market rate,” is the midpoint between the price to buy one currency and sell another currency in the foreign exchange market. It is essentially a ‘wholesale’ rate, available only to large financial institutions or those who purchase large volumes of currency. Generally, consumers wishing to exchange currency will not be offered the Market Rate, but instead will be provided with a Customer Rate.
If you book a transfer with OFX, your exchange rate will not be equal to the current market rate. We do, however, encourage our customers to check the Market Rate when considering a currency exchange transfer. Understanding the current Market Rate will help you determine if you are receiving a competitive rate. View the live market rates to see what rate we can offer you on a currency exchange transfer with OFX, please log in to your OFX account. If you do not have an OFX account, register now.
Your routing number is a 9-digit code that will be used to identify where your bank account was opened. It may also be known as an RTN, an ABA routing number, or a routing transit number. As you prepare to send money internationally, one of the numbers that you’ll want to have on hand is your routing number.
You can find your routing number at the bottom of your checks, as it will be the set of numbers on the left side of your account number. If you have online banking, you can easily find your routing number information on your account’s page.
Because routing numbers don’t need to be kept confidential, a lot of banks will even have them posted on their websites. This makes it a snap to access the routing number you need for wiring money with a simple Google search.
There are several situations in which you’ll be asked for your routing number. For example, if you’re making a payment by phone or online, or if you’re making automatic bill payments, you’ll need to provide your account number and routing number.
Also, if you’re processing checks or transferring money internationally, you’ll be asked to provide your routing number, so the banks will know precisely where the money needs to go.
Your bank will be able to tell you which routing number to use for the task that you’re hoping to accomplish. Routing numbers on checks might be different from the routing numbers required for performing wire transfers, so it’s a good idea to look them up online in order to avoid processing delays.
