Credit Card
Paying for your transfer with a credit card is easy and fast. Xe accepts Visa and Mastercard. Send money to Uganda with a credit card today!
Direct Debit (ACH)
When you use bank debit (ACH) to fund your transfer you are authorising a one-time debit from your bank account to ours. It takes a little more time for your money to reach Xe, and as a result, can delay the speed of transfer.
Bank Transfer
A bank transfer or wire transfer is an electronic payment which sends money directly from one bank account to another. Bank transfers can be slower than debit or credit cards, but they usually give you the best value for your money.
