At Pangea, it’s our mission to make money transfer simple, fair, and safe. We work hard every day to ensure that our mobile app is fast, easy to use, and secure. And of course, we also want to help you save money when you send money!

Here are a few tips to help you save more dollars in the US and send more money to your family and friends abroad.

1. Pay attention to exchange rates.

Thanks to our locked-in exchange rates, you will always know how much money your family and friends will receive. Be sure to always check the daily exchange rates before you send money!

The exchange rate calculator on our homepage gives you a real-time view of how much money your receiver will get for each dollar you send! Simply select your receiving country in the drop-down menu.

If you need more help finding our daily exchange rates, see this blog post to learn how to find them using your Pangea mobile app.

2. Refer your friends!

Recommend Pangea to your friends who send money to Latin America! Simply share your personal promo code with friends, and when they complete their first transfer with it, you’ll earn $20 towards your next transfer. There’s no limit! The more you share, the more you earn—and the more money you’ll save each time you send.

Read this post for a step-by-step guide on how to earn $20 extra when you refer a friend.

3. Avoid hidden fees.

While other money transfer services might surprise you with unexpected fees, you don’t have to worry about that with the Pangea mobile app. It’s always only $3.95 to send money to Latin America. So say goodbye to high fees!

If you have any other questions, check out our Support Center or call us at +1 866-858-9928. We’re always here to help!
