Most of the payments that our customers make to Switzerland arrive within 1-2 working days. We ensure that your payment arrives on time, regardless of how much money you want to send; large money transfers do not take longer to arrive than smaller transfers. You’ll have the ability to track your payments and view your full transaction history online.

You can take advantage of one of the most cost-effective ways to send money to Switzerland when you partner with Moneycorp. You’ll be able to make fee-free online international transfers and will only incur online fees if you decide to automate your recurring payments with a Regular Payment Plan.

Over-the-phone transfers to Switzerland, on the other hand, cost a flat rate of £15, which makes Moneycorp an economical choice if you wish to transfer large sums of money.

If you wish to make a payment to Switzerland, we’ll need you to provide us with the following details:

• The account holder’s full name and address
• The recipient’s bank name
• The recipient’s account number
• The recipient’s IBAN or BIC/SWIFT code

Read our guides on IBANs and BIC/SWIFT codes for further information on how these codes are used by financial institutions to make international payments on a daily basis.

Every bank account in Switzerland is assigned an IBAN. This is a 21-character alphanumeric code that allows the account to be identified by banks in other countries. A Swiss IBAN begins with an ISO Country Code (CH), followed by two check digits and a BBAN (Basic Bank Account Number). The BBAN is 17 digits, and it is comprised of a five-digit bank code and a 12-digit bank account number.

A Swiss IBAN number in the standardised format:

CH93 1234 5678 9012 3456 7

There is a £100,000 upper limit on personal transfers that can be made through our online platform to Switzerland. Transfers made over the phone, on the other hand, have no upper limit, and so you will need to contact your Moneycorp account manager by telephone in order to make payments from the UK to Switzerland that exceed this limit.

We can help you make payments to most of the major Swiss banks, including but not limited to:

• UBS
• Julius Baer (JB)
• Zurich Cantonal Bank
• Credit Suisse
• Raiffeisen Switzerland
• EFG
• Banque cantonale de Genève (BCGE)

If the bank that you’d like to use for your payment is not included in this list, it does not mean that we’d be unable to assist you. Speak with our team of specialists today to find out more.

As an Authorised Payment Institution, we’re regulated by the FCA for the provision of payment services. It’s safe, therefore, to make online money transfers to Switzerland with Moneycorp; we’ll flag suspicious transactions in your account, and you can rest assured that your payment details and personal information will be protected.

Whilst you could simply use your bank to transfer your money to Switzerland, it is worth bearing in mind that traditional banks aren’t always very good at handling international payments; their exchange rate costs are higher than those levied by currency specialists, and they can also charge transfer fees of up to £30 per transaction. Banks tend to take longer to process international transactions too. A better option, therefore, is to use a currency exchange specialist when making international payments. At Moneycorp, we offer competitive exchange rates and fee-free online transfers.
