Why this route works
USD to PKR, without the wire
Local delivery in Pakistan instead of an international transfer that arrives late and short.
Rate shown before you send
The USD to PKR rate and the fee appear on the confirmation screen, along with the exact PKR amount that will land.
Same-day where possible
Most payments to Pakistani bank accounts settle the same business day, and many arrive within a few hours. Payments sent outside local banking hours or over a weekend land on the next working day.
Compliant end to end
Every USD to PKR payment is screened against sanctions and anti-money-laundering rules before release, which keeps funds from being held up on arrival.

You see the applicable rate and the fee on screen before confirming, together with the exact amount your recipient will receive in PKR. Nothing is deducted afterwards, so the figure you approve is the figure that lands.
You need the recipient's full name as it appears on their bank account plus their local Pakistan account details. The payment form tells you exactly which fields are required and validates them before you continue.
PKR is available as a payout currency rather than a balance you hold. You keep your funds in a currency such as USD and convert as part of the payment, which means you are not exposed to PKR movements while you wait.
