What we've measured on USD → TRY

Across 59 days of our own recorded quotes, the gap between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 2.0% (widest single day: 5.1%). On a 1,000 USD transfer that is the difference between the best and worst choice.

The best provider has changed 2 times in that window, across 2 different providers (Wise 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 Turkey can be paid via cash pickup, a bank account, a mobile wallet and a debit card, 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 → Turkey corridor specifically, ranked by how much TRY your recipient actually receives after fees and the exchange-rate margin — not by the headline fee alone.

USD to TRY — Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest way to send USD to TRY?

Wise currently offers the best value for USD → TRY, delivering 49,661 TRY for 1,000 USD. We rank by the total amount received after fees and exchange-rate markup, updated every 4 hours.

What is the current USD to TRY exchange rate?

The best available rate is 1 USD = 50.02 TRY via Wise. The reference (mid-market) rate is 50.00, taken from the European Central Bank's daily euro reference rates. Across 59 days of our own records, the spread between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 2.0%. Rates are updated every 4 hours.

Are there hidden fees when sending USD to TRY?

On this corridor the two costs split roughly 1.34% in visible fees and 1.42% in exchange-rate markup, averaged over the 3 providers here that publish a fee — so the markup is the larger part, about 51% of what you pay. We rank by the amount your recipient actually receives, which captures both. Learn how fees work →
