Money Router

Compare every way to send money across borders — fiat, crypto, and P2P — in one query.

What it does

Given a source currency, destination currency, and amount, Money Router finds the cheapest route across 22+ crypto exchanges and 19 remittance providers. It returns ranked routes with step-by-step instructions, fees, exchange rates, and estimated delivery time.

Routes can be multi-hop: for example, USD → USDC (Coinbase) → MXN (Bitso) may be cheaper than USD → MXN (Wise) for certain amounts.
