Benefits of Outward Remittance
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a student forex provider who is always there for you, eager to help you, ready to provide you with a financial safety net, wherever you are?
Well, now you do!
Courtesy of Thomas Cook, nicknamed as Fantastic Forex Friend. In this blog, we go over the outward remittance benefits of our international money transfer service
1. Convenient
One of the biggest advantages of Thomas Cook’s outward remittance feature is the ease and simplicity with which it can be used. As an international student, you will have to learn how to manage your educational and living expenses with caution and care. However, there will be many instances where you will require that additional support from family back home in India. With our international money transfer service, your parents can remit student forex with just a few clicks. Yes, it’s as easy as logging onto the Thomas Cook website from a smart phone, tablet or computer. Whether they wish to transfer money from India to USA or transfer money from India to Canada, it’s an easy-breezy task.
2. Contactless
Another important benefit of Thomas Cook’s remittance from India service, is that it is 100% contactless. Given the current scenario of a global pandemic, and the need to have efficient alternatives that support and enable social distancing, this process becomes even more valuable. If you are in need of that extra student forex, your parents can remit it to you without having to travel to the nearest Thomas Cook branch. With four simple #gharpeforex steps that include selecting the currency and denomination, filling in the transaction details, making the payment, and receiving confirmation, the remittance can be facilitated.
3. Cost-effective
What makes Thomas Cook’s foreign remittance feature even more attractive is the fact that it squeezes the maximum value out of a transaction. You, as the beneficiary, will receive the best deal for your student forex. Your parents, on the other hand, will have access to the most competitive exchange rates. Our live rate card tracks exchange rates and remittance rates for up to 27 destinations in the world. With low/zero transfer fees and cost-effective prices, you can enjoy more cash in your account, to tide you over for a rainy day.
4. Quick
The sheer brilliance of Thomas Cook’s money transfer service is in its speed and agility. Accessible online, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, you can always count on its expertise for receiving student forex on time. Through our reliable network of money transfer service agents like MoneyGram and XpressMoney, we ensure that you receive your money wherever you are, be it in the country you’re studying in or the country you’re visiting. The best part is, it’s much quicker than a bank transfer. After your parents have filled in the beneficiary details, you will receive a unique reference code which will help you track your remittance.
