AUD to USD: sending money that arrives in US dollars
This page is about sending AUD from Australia so that your recipient is paid in US dollars (USD, $). It is not a travel-money rate: TopRate does not sell cash or cards. The rate is the one our quote engine gives for a transfer, and the converter shows what arrives after the fee.
Several of the countries we are launching pay out in US dollars. The United States uses it, Ecuador and Panama use the US dollar as their everyday currency, and it is widely used for payments in Liberia, Zimbabwe and, for some payouts, Ethiopia. The list below shows which of them you can send to today.

About the rate
How TopRate sets the AUD to USD rate
What the AUD to US Dollar figure on this page includes, where it comes from and how long it stays current.
One rate, from one source
The figure above comes from the same quote engine that prices the TopRate app and the calculator on our website. There is no separate advertised rate: a AUD to USD quote here and in the app is worked out the same way.
The fee is shown on its own
The rate converts Australian dollars into US Dollar; the transfer fee is a separate line. The converter lists both for each amount, and the app shows the exact fee before you confirm.
It moves during the day
Exchange rates are live, variable and not guaranteed. This page refreshes at most once an hour and prints the time the AUD to USD rate was set, so you always know how old the figure is.
Special rates are earned
Once sending in USD opens, rewards such as cashback and referrals can build a special rate on top of the live one. Terms and conditions apply.
Reading the rate
How to read the AUD to US Dollar rate
A AUD to USD rate tells you how many US Dollar one Australian dollar converts to before any fee.
For a quick before-fee figure, multiply the amount you send by the rate. For what actually arrives, read the converter above: each row is the engine's own answer for that amount, with the fee already accounted for.
A higher AUD to USD rate means more US Dollar for each Australian dollar, but the rate alone does not tell you what your recipient gets. When you compare providers, compare the amount received after fees, for the same amount sent, at the same time of day.
