What are Money Transfers?

Money transfers move funds from one bank account to another. In the UK the main channels are Faster Payments (near-instant, small-value), BACS (three-day, low-cost, bulk), CHAPS (same-day, high-value), and Direct Debits for recurring collections. International transfers use SWIFT wires or services like Wise and Revolut. Each method has different fees, speeds, and daily limits that make it better suited to some transactions than others.
