You can receive money from overseas directly to your BCU Bank account using our International Payments Service, powered by Convera. This is called an inward transfer – an electronic transfer of funds directly credited to your account from an overseas sender.
The funds arrive in the sender's own currency, and Convera converts them into Australian dollars before forwarding to us for crediting to your account.
To receive a payment from overseas simply complete the Convera form - Receive money from overseas.
Once you've completed the form, you'll be presented with the deposit instructions. Save this as a reference and send it to your payee so they can follow the payment instructions.
Then, all you need to do is ask the sender to:
- Present the PDF deposit instructions to the bank sending the payment to you.
- Deposit the amount into the dedicated account as stated in the instructions in nearest currency, not in Australian Dollars (AUD).
