Tel Aviv, Israel

Tel Aviv is increasingly connected to the global economy, and international Money Transfers shouldn't mean slow, expensive legacy tools. WorldFirst gives Tel Aviv a modern, transparent option that works whether your customers are down the street or across the world.

Receiving money in Israel: the local picture

Currency

Transfers into Israel land in Israeli new shekel (ILS), so the exchange rate you lock in and the fees quoted up front are what decide how much actually arrives.

How transfers settle

The Masav clearing system settles domestic transfers on business days; instant payment adoption is growing. Cross-border transfers route through correspondent banks. That matters for a transfer sent from Tel Aviv: a provider that delivers onto the local rail typically clears faster than a routed correspondent-bank wire.

Recipient details

Israeli accounts use a bank code (2-3 digits), branch (3 digits), and account number (up to 9 digits). International transfers need the Israeli IBAN (23 characters, starting IL). Getting these recipient details exactly right is the difference between a same-day delivery and a bounced-back transfer.

Regulation

Payments in Israel are overseen by the Bank of Israel. New payment institutions in Israel operate under the Payment Services Law (2020), supervised by the Bank of Israel. Confirm licensed status before holding funds with a provider.
