With Xoom’s breakthrough technology, money can be deposited into the recipient’s account instantly. No waiting in line, no high fees. Just the most convenient money transfer service possible.

When customers send money to China during bank processing hours (7 a.m. to 10 p.m., Beijing Standard Time), their transfer will arrive in seconds. Transfers are processed through the UnionPay MoneyExpress network. All customers require is their recipient’s UnionPay card number and the Pin-Yin name associated with that card. Xoom will instantly transfer funds to some of the most recognizable banking brands in China, including Bank of China, Bank of Communications, China Construction Bank, and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Customers can send up to $2,999 for just $8.88 when paying with their bank account.
