Mid-sized transfer

500 AUD to GBP — How much is A$500 in GBP today?

Transfers in the $500–$2,000 range are typical of monthly family remittances, freelancer payouts, and one-off bill payments abroad. This is where the rate margin (the hidden cost in the exchange rate) starts to outweigh the upfront fee.
