The UK to Philippines corridor carries a large amount of money each year, and operators quietly take a cut on both the fee and the pound-to-peso rate. A USDT transfer keeps far more of it. Here is how a sender in London does it and how family receives pesos.

## The UK side

- **Buy USDT:** buy USDT with pounds in the Fizen app through P2P or Transak.
- **Send it:** transfer to the recipient's wallet in minutes for a small network fee.

## Cashing out to pesos

In the Philippines the recipient sells USDT for pesos via P2P or Transak to a bank or e-wallet, or spends it by QR at merchants. No UK account needed, and no waiting on an operator's payout queue.

## What it costs

| Method                  | Typical all-in cost      | Speed            |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------ | ---------------- |
| Money-transfer operator | 3 to 6 percent           | Minutes to a day |
| Bank wire               | 4 to 7 percent           | 1 to 5 days      |
| USDT                    | about 0.5 to 1.5 percent | Minutes          |
