Argentine pesos for someone in Buenos Aires
The people sending from Amsterdam and Rotterdam to Argentina tend to know exactly what the recipient needs in Argentine pesos. A rate that moves between send and settlement breaks that.
Grey fixes the EUR to ARS rate when you confirm and pays into Banco de la Nación, Banco Galicia, Santander Argentina, BBVA Argentina or any Argentine bank. Spain and Italy have deep family ties with Argentina, and Europeans pay Argentine freelancers in pesos.
How sending to Argentina works

Sign up
Download Grey, verify with your passport or residence permit, and you're set in a few minutes. Grey works with regulated partners in the EU.
Fund
Send euros to your Grey balance by SEPA or iDEAL transfer from any Dutch bank. Hold it there, and convert to ARS only when the payment to Buenos Aires is due.
Send
Argentina needs the recipient's CBU or alias, the 22-digit identifier every Argentine account carries. Enter it, check the ARS amount, send.
The cost of a transfer to Buenos Aires
Grey shows one rate, EUR to ARS, and one fee. Both are fixed before you send from Amsterdam. The amount that reaches Buenos Aires matches what you were shown.

What you agree is what arrives

The rate you accept in Amsterdam is the rate applied. Movements in either currency afterwards don't touch what arrives at Banco de la Nación, Banco Galicia, Santander Argentina, BBVA Argentina.
Few banks quote ARS at all. Those that do route through dollars with wide margins and slow settlement.


What Dutch senders put up with before
