Yes, sending money to Japan with OFX is secure. The platform uses bank-level encryption, secure logins, and transaction monitoring to protect your funds and personal information. Additionally, OFX is a regulated financial institution, giving you peace of mind that your money is in safe hands.
Delivery speeds from Australia to Japan using OFX take between one and two business days, depending on the currency, transfer method, and recipient bank. Large transfers may require additional verification, which could add a little extra time, but OFX keeps you informed throughout the process.
Transfers using credit or debit cards tend to be the fastest delivery method for sending money compared to bank transfers, often arriving at your destination country in one business day.
The best method depends on your priorities. If cost is the main concern, bank transfers are ideal. If speed is essential, credit or debit cards can provide faster delivery times. OFX combines competitive exchange rates with secure, reliable transfers, ensuring your money reaches the recipient safely and efficiently, regardless of the method you choose.
With OFX, there are no strict minimum or maximum limits for personal transfers, although the banks may double-check certain larger amounts. This flexibility makes it easy to send anything from a few hundred dollars for personal expenses to tens of thousands for tuition, property, or business purposes.
