Remitly FAQ

How do I locate my IBAN?

You can usually find your IBAN by logging into your online or mobile banking account—look for it under your account details or international transfer section.

It may also appear on your printed or digital bank statements. If you're still unsure, reach out to your bank directly or use Remitly's IBAN calculator.

What's the difference between an IBAN, SWIFT code, and routing number?

These codes help with money transfers, but each has a distinct role:

  • Routing number: Used in the U.S. for local bank transfers.
  • SWIFT code: Identifies banks worldwide for international transactions.
  • IBAN: Identifies specific bank accounts across countries using a standardized format.
In most international transfers, you'll need both an IBAN and a SWIFT code—but not a routing number unless you're sending money within the U.S.

When do I need to use an IBAN?

IBANs are required when sending money to countries that use the IBAN system, primarily in Europe, the Middle East, and certain parts of Asia and Latin America.

They help ensure your transfer goes to the correct bank account and are often necessary for receiving money.

Is sending money through Remitly secure?

Yes. Remitly uses secure systems and encryption to protect your transfers. If your transfer doesn't arrive on time, Remitly will refund the transfer fee, so you can send with confidence.

Are there any special offers for first-time Remitly users?

Yes! Remitly often provides promotional rates or discounts for new customers sending their first international transfer. Check remitly.com for the latest offers before you send.
