What we've measured on USD → MXN

Across 64 days of our own recorded quotes, the gap between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 3.9% (widest single day: 6.2%). On a 1,000 USD transfer that is the difference between the best and worst choice.

The best provider has changed 15 times in that window, across 2 different providers (TapTap Send has led on the most days). This corridor is genuinely competitive, so the cheapest option today may not be the cheapest next week.

Provider rates on this corridor are measured against the European Central Bank's daily euro reference rates.

Recipients in Mexico can be paid via a bank account, cash pickup and a mobile wallet, based on what the providers above actually price for this corridor.

Figures come from our own append-only rate history, not from provider marketing. See the methodology and rate trends.

Sending USD from the United States

Money transfer companies operating from the United States are registered as Money Services Businesses (MSBs) with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and are licensed as money transmitters at the state level. Senders typically pay by bank account (ACH), debit card or credit card, and larger transfers may require identity verification before they settle.

This page compares providers for the the United States → Mexico corridor specifically, ranked by how much MXN your recipient actually receives after fees and the exchange-rate margin — not by the headline fee alone.

USD to MXN — Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest way to send USD to MXN?

TapTap Send currently offers the best value for USD → MXN, delivering 18,650 MXN for 1,000 USD. We rank by the total amount received after fees and exchange-rate markup, updated every 4 hours. Note that the lead has changed 15 times in the last 64 days across 2 providers, so today's winner is not a permanent answer — check before each transfer.

What is the current USD to MXN exchange rate?

The best available rate is 1 USD = 18.65 MXN via TapTap Send. The reference (mid-market) rate is 18.60, taken from the European Central Bank's daily euro reference rates. Across 64 days of our own records, the spread between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 3.9%. Rates are updated every 4 hours. Always confirm the final rate on the provider's site before sending.

Are there hidden fees when sending USD to MXN?

On this corridor the two costs split roughly 0.21% in visible fees and 1.22% in exchange-rate markup, averaged over the 6 providers here that publish a fee — so the markup is the larger part, about 85% of what you pay. 3 of them charge no fee at all on this corridor, which is exactly why fee alone is a poor guide. We rank by the amount your recipient actually receives, which captures both. Learn how fees work →
