Simple Ways to Save at Western Union UK
Sending money doesn't have to be expensive. Here are a few simple tricks to keep more cash in your pocket when you use Western Union.
- Send Online or via the App: The fees for sending money online or through the mobile app are often lower than going into an agent location.
- Choose a Bank Transfer: When you're sending money directly to someone's bank account, it's usually cheaper than a cash pickup option.
- Pay with a Bank Account: Paying for your transfer directly from your bank account (like a debit) can cost less than using a credit card, which might have higher fees.
- Look for Promo Codes: Always check our coupon website for the latest Western Union promo codes before you complete your transfer. You can often find codes for reduced fees or better exchange rates.
Best Times to Shop
While Western Union is for money transfers, not shopping, there are still better times to send money to get a good deal.
- Holiday Periods: Around major holidays, Western Union sometimes runs special promotions offering lower fees or guaranteed exchange rates. Keep an eye out around Christmas
