Rates are not the whole story
A strong exchange rate matters, but the final payout and fee visibility matter too.
The headline rate can distract you
It is easy to compare services by exchange rate alone. That is useful, but it is not the whole picture.
A transfer can show a nice-looking rate and still feel unclear if the fee is hidden or the final payout changes too late.
Start from the payout
When sending from the UK to Nigeria, the practical question is simple: how much Naira will arrive?
That is why GreenCard is being shaped around showing the rate, fee, and expected payout before you confirm.
Clear beats clever
People should not need a spreadsheet to understand a money transfer.
The cleaner the breakdown, the easier it is to trust what you are sending.
