All About Money Transfers: How to Send Money to and from Kyrgyzstan

April 2, 2025

    Main Types of Money Transfers

  1. Bank Transfers
    Send funds from one bank account to another using clearing or gross settlement. You’ll need the recipient’s account number, bank BIC, and bank name. Transfers can be within the same bank or between different banks.

  2. Money Transfer Systems
    Services like Western Union or Zolotaya Korona allow you to send money without opening a bank account. You visit a service point, fill out a form, hand over the money, and get a code to give to the recipient.

  3. Card-to-Card Transfers
    Send money using just the recipient’s card number — via ATM, mobile app, or internet banking.

  4. E-Wallets and Banking Apps
    Apps like Kompanion allow transfers by wallet number, phone number, bank account, or card number — with speed and security.

    What to Consider Before Choosing a Transfer Method

  • Recipient Convenience: Check which offices or payout points are available in their location.

  • Transfer Amount: Confirm if there are any limits per transaction, day, or month.

  • Speed: If funds are needed urgently, choose methods with instant delivery.

  • Fees: Faster services may come with higher fees — compare beforehand.

Tip: Before using e-wallets or apps, make sure your card supports international transactions.
