Hey bunqers 🌈
Yes, you can send/receive payments to your bunq account from another bank account outside of the SEPA Region!
How does it work?
All you need to do is make sure that the sending bank converts the amount of the payment into euros before sending the payment to your bunq account. If a payment using a different currency reaches bunq, it will get bounced back automatically as we only support euros as a currency.
What if I have a Local Currency account?
If you have a Local Currency sub-account opened, you can receive funds in the relevant currency without any hassle! Further information about Local Currency sub-accounts can be found here.
Keep in mind that even with a Local Currencies account, the transfers are still SWIFT payments. It takes time for these payments to arrive. SWIFT payments can take up to 5 days. There are also fees involved in receiving a SWIFT payment. You can learn more about this here.
