What currency can I pay bills in?
You can pay bills in over 50 currencies!
We support invoices in most of the currencies you receive them in. When you fill in the total amount to pay, select which currency you'd like to pay in.
Depending on the source of funds you select to pay in (SGD, IDR, USD or EUR - based on your account) you may be charged SWIFT and FX Fees.
When you select the Source of funds, we will show the amount you will be paying in that currency (SGD, IDR, USD, EUR or GBP) and what your payee will receive too.
