Cheapest way to send USD to China
On the United States to China corridor, the real cost of a transfer is the gap between the mid-market rate above and the rate your provider gives you, plus any fixed fee. Banks and high-street cash agents typically bundle a 2%–5% margin into the exchange rate, which is easy to miss because the "no fee" headline hides it. Specialist transfer apps that quote the mid-market rate with a small, transparent fee are usually cheaper for this corridor.
To compare providers honestly:
- Compare the total amount received in CNY, not the advertised fee.
- Check the exchange rate offered against the mid-market rate of 6.7765 shown here.
- Factor in delivery speed and payout method (bank deposit, cash pickup, wallet).
We are building independent, fee-transparent provider comparisons for this corridor. Until then, compare at least two services before sending. (Affiliate partner comparisons are a planned addition; this page currently links to none.)
