The same service-fee formula applies to every supported sending currency, based on the USD-equivalent transfer amount. Transfers from $15 through $100 have an estimated $10 service fee. Above that, the fee increases with the amount: $45.60 at $500, $77.09 at $1,000, and $329 at $5,000. Transfers over $5,000 need a custom quote. The exchange-rate margin is separate.
