How long does a transfer to Malaysia from Australia take?
Transfers to Malaysia from Australia can arrive in as little as 10 minutes, but the actual time depends on the payout method and the receiving bank or provider, and the estimated arrival time is shown in the app before you confirm.
| Payout method | What the recipient needs | What affects delivery time |
|---|---|---|
| Bank deposit (MYR) | Full name, bank name and Malaysian account number | Receiving bank processing and cut-off times |
| Mobile wallet (Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, BigPay, ShopeePay) | Name and wallet or linked DuitNow ID | Wallet provider availability and verification |
| Cash pickup | Full name as on ID and the reference number | Agent opening hours and ID check at collection |
Several things can affect speed: receiving bank cut-off times, weekends and Malaysian public holidays, identity or compliance checks on the transfer, and incorrect recipient details that have to be corrected before the money can be released.
How much does it cost to send money to Malaysia from Australia?
The exchange rate and every fee are shown in the Coinepay app before you confirm the transfer, so you always see the total before you pay. What you pay depends on the amount you send, the currency the recipient receives and the payout method you choose. Keep in mind that the recipient's own bank or wallet provider may apply its own incoming or handling charge, so it is worth checking that on their side before you send.
Ways to receive money in Malaysia from Australia
Bank deposit
Money is paid into a Malaysian bank account. You will need the recipient's full name, their bank name and their account number. Malaysia does not use the IBAN format, so use the local account number rather than an IBAN. For a bank-to-bank SWIFT transfer, the receiving bank's SWIFT/BIC code may also be requested — for example, Maybank publishes MBBEMYKL — along with the account number and name. A particular payout provider may also ask for a bank or branch code, so follow the fields shown in the app.
Mobile wallet
Popular Malaysian wallets such as Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, BigPay and ShopeePay can receive funds when the wallet is linked to the recipient's DuitNow ID. You will need the recipient's name and their wallet or DuitNow ID. Availability depends on the provider, so check the options shown at checkout.
Cash pickup
The recipient collects cash at a participating agent location in Malaysia. They will need to bring valid photo ID that matches the name on the transfer and quote the reference number you share with them.
What you need to send money to Malaysia from Australia
- A verified Coinepay account (identity verification must be complete).
- The recipient's full legal name exactly as it appears on their bank account, wallet or ID.
- The payout details for the method you choose — account number and bank, DuitNow ID or wallet, or cash-pickup details.
- The purpose of the transfer if you are asked for it, plus any source-of-funds information for larger amounts.
Malaysia's local currency is the Malaysian ringgit, currency code MYR. For cross-border transfers, Malaysian banks must obtain certain originator and beneficiary information, so accurate details help your transfer clear smoothly.
