How long does a transfer to Suriname take?
Transfers to Suriname 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 | Full name and address, account number, and the bank's name and SWIFT/BIC | Receiving bank processing hours and any correspondent-bank routing |
| Mobile / card-linked wallet | Wallet or linked-card details as shown for the available route | Provider processing and whether the route is active for your corridor |
| Cash pickup | Valid ID, the transfer reference number and sender details | Agent location opening hours and ID verification at pickup |
Several things can affect speed: receiving bank cut-off times, weekends and local holidays, identity or compliance checks, and incorrect or incomplete recipient details, which can delay a transfer or cause it to be returned.
How much does it cost to send money to Suriname?
The exchange rate and every fee are shown clearly in the Coinepay app before you confirm the transfer, so you always see the total and what the recipient receives before you pay. The total depends on the amount you send, the currency the recipient gets, and the payout method you choose. The recipient should also check whether their own bank or payout provider charges an incoming or cash-handling fee, as that is outside Coinepay's control.
Ways to receive money in Suriname
Bank deposit
Funds are paid into a Surinamese bank account. Suriname does not have a national IBAN format, so use the account number exactly as supplied by the receiving bank, along with the recipient's full name and address and the bank's name and SWIFT/BIC (for example, De Surinaamsche Bank uses SURBSRPA). Depending on the currency, an intermediary or correspondent bank may be involved; your recipient's bank can confirm its current receiving instructions.
Mobile and card-linked wallets
Wallet payouts in Suriname depend on the route and provider available for your corridor. One documented option is a card-linked balance usable with a Uni5Pay+ wallet via Southern Commercial Bank. Choose a payout method in the app to see which wallet options are currently available and what details the recipient needs.
Cash pickup
The recipient collects cash at a participating agent location. They will need valid identification, the transfer reference number from your Coinepay confirmation, and your sender details. Missing ID or an incorrect reference number will prevent payout, so share the details carefully.
What you need to send money to Suriname
- A verified Coinepay account (registration and identity verification completed).
- The recipient's full legal name exactly as it appears on their bank account or ID.
- The payout details for the chosen method: account number and bank SWIFT/BIC for bank deposit, wallet details for a wallet payout, or the recipient's name for cash pickup.
- The purpose of the transfer and, for some transfers, the source of funds, if Coinepay asks.
The local currency is the Surinamese dollar (SRD). You can fund and send in a supported currency and have the recipient receive SRD; the app shows the conversion before you confirm.
How Coinepay keeps your transfer safe
Every customer completes identity verification, and both senders and recipients are screened against sanctions lists. Transfers are handled through licensed partner financial institutions and sent over encrypted connections. You can track the status of each transfer from the 24/7 self-service dashboard, and support is available around the clock. Transfers are subject to identity verification, sanctions screening and local regulations, and Coinepay may ask for documents such as the purpose or source of funds before a transfer is released.
