the United States's money landscape, in brief
Currency
Transfers into the United States land in US dollar (USD), so the exchange rate you lock in and the fees quoted up front are what decide how much actually arrives.
How transfers settle
FedNow is a 24/7 instant-payment infrastructure available through participating US financial institutions. Access and transfer timing depend on the bank or payment provider you use. That matters for a transfer sent from New York: a provider that delivers onto the local rail typically clears faster than a routed correspondent-bank wire.
Recipient details
US domestic bank details pair a 9-digit ABA routing number with the recipient’s account number. US accounts do not use IBAN for domestic payments. Getting these recipient details exactly right is the difference between a same-day delivery and a bounced-back transfer.
Regulation
Payments in the United States are overseen by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). NYDFS licenses money transmitters under New York Banking Law. Check a provider’s licensing status and the services it is permitted to offer before sending funds.
