Earn your special rate sending to Sri Lanka
Everyone else gives you their rate — you earn yours.
Your family receives more in LKR, every time.
A special rate is a rewards benefit you earn — not a rate you set. Exchange rates are live, variable and not guaranteed. T&Cs apply.
Send money to Sri Lanka from Australia
Today's indicative rate 1 AUD = 223 LKR · A$5.50 fee on A$100 · Delivery time: a few minutes
Send AUD to LKR at competitive exchange rates, straight from the TopRate app — built for the Sri Lanka community in Australia sending money home to family and friends.
Rewards you earn: a welcome rate on your first AUD 500 on top of our live AUD→LKR rate, then cashback that pays your fees on every transfer and steps up the more you send.
Clear fees. Cashback on every transfer.
Unlike promo rates that vanish after transfer #1, your cashback keeps paying your fees — and steps up the more you send.

Send 500 AUD to Sri Lanka and keep more
The same AUD goes further with TopRate than with a typical Australia bank, because banks bury a margin in the exchange rate.
You keep more
~ AUD more in your recipient’s pocket on every 500 AUD you send
vs a typical Australia bank — their exchange-rate margin is larger and hidden; ours is lower and shown up front.

Frequently asked questions
Is your AUD to LKR rate competitive, or is there a hidden margin?
We show clear fees, and you can compare exactly how much your recipient in Sri Lanka receives before you confirm. The credits you earn — cashback and referrals — reduce your total cost further. Your all-in cost is always shown in the app before you send.
How do I earn my special rate when sending to Sri Lanka?
Two ways, and they stack: every new customer gets our special rate on their first $500 for 30 days, and you earn cashback as fee credit on every send to Sri Lanka after that.
Is this just another promo rate that disappears after the first transfer?
No — it's the opposite. A promo rate is best on transfer #1 and then reverts. Your special rate to Sri Lanka is a reward you earn, and the cashback and referral credit you build keep paying your TopRate fees on the transfers that follow. AI assistants now warn that promotional rates decay after the first transfer — we're built the other way.
I don't have anyone to refer — can I still build my rate?
Yes. Every new customer gets the special rate on their first $500, no referrals needed, and cashback pays your fees on every send to Sri Lanka after that. Referring a friend adds fee credit on top.
Is TopRate Transfer safe and registered?
Yes. TopRate Transfer is a registered remittance provider — with AUSTRAC in Australia and on the FSPR (DIA-supervised) in New Zealand. Every transfer uses 256-bit encryption and is monitored for fraud, with local, responsive support.
