Remitly supports international transfers to Philippines (PHP). This page covers how Remitly handles this corridor — delivery methods, supported send currencies, and how it compares to digital asset rails and other providers tracked by RemitRoutes. All fee comparisons use live data; no estimates.
Remitly is popular for Philippines transfers thanks to GCash delivery. But is it the cheapest option?
RemitRoutes fetches live quotes from Remitly alongside digital asset rails (USDC on Stellar, Tron, Solana, and other chains) and other traditional providers. The comparison ranks every option by all-in cost — transfer fee plus any FX markup combined — so you see the real picture, not just the headline fee.
On many corridors, digital asset rails appear lower cost than traditional providers including Remitly. On others — especially major developed-market corridors — Remitly is competitive. The only reliable way to know is to compare live quotes for your specific corridor and amount.
RemitRoutes scrapes live quotes every 6 hours from Remitly and all other tracked providers. Each quote records the transfer fee, the exchange rate offered, and the amount the recipient receives in PHP. The all-in cost is calculated as the difference between what you send and the mid-market equivalent of what the recipient gets — capturing both the explicit fee and any FX markup in a single number.
This methodology means you can compare Remitly against crypto rail alternatives on equal footing. Quotes are scraped for standard amounts ($200, $500, $1,000, $5,000) so you can also see how the effective fee rate changes with transfer size.
