Sending money to Zimbabwe Instantly with ChitChat!

The Real Cost of International Money Transfers

Here's what's really happening when you send money abroad: Hidden Costs to Watch Out For:

  • Transfer fees - what you're charged to send
  • Exchange rates - how your money is converted
  • Hidden markup - the sneaky extra costs

Most banks and fintechs advertise "Zero or Low Fees!"

But here's their secret: they hide their profits in marked-up exchange rates. So while you might not pay a transfer fee, you're actually getting less money at the other end. At ChitChat, we believe in total transparency:

  • We use the real Mastercard exchange rate
  • Our fees are clear and upfront - no surprises
  • What you see is exactly what you get

Because we think you deserve to know exactly what your money transfer costs. Simple!
