Which rail your money travels on
Before choosing a venue, ask how money gets in and how it gets out. A low fee is worth nothing if the deposit never lands.
In Vietnam, direct bank transfers to venues are usually blocked, so P2P is the main route — and its 0.3–0.8% spread is the real fee, not the number on the fee page.
In the Philippines GCash is near-instant. In Indonesia it depends on whether the venue holds an OJK licence. Every country has a different answer.
Run it on your own numbers
Venues quote percentages, so the number looks small. Enter your monthly volume to see what it becomes in a year across 8 venues, ranked in money.
