Getting ARS to Argentina from the Philippines
Seen from Manila. Asian businesses pay Argentine suppliers for beef, wine and agricultural products. Most banks in the Philippines either won't quote ARS or route it through a second currency, adding a spread nobody discloses.
Grey quotes USD to ARS directly for senders in Manila and Cebu. The ARS lands at Banco de la Nación, Banco Galicia, Santander Argentina, BBVA Argentina or any Argentine bank as a domestic deposit. Nothing to install on the receiving side.
How sending to Argentina works
Sign up
A passport or PhilSys ID and a few minutes in Manila. Your account arrives with dollar, euro and pound details for receiving money from abroad. Grey works with licensed partners serving the Philippines.
Fund
Give a foreign employer or client your Grey USD, EUR or GBP account details. When they pay, the money is ready to send to Buenos Aires.
Send
Argentina needs the recipient's CBU or alias, the 22-digit identifier every Argentine account carries. Enter it, check the ARS amount, send.
What the fee doesn't tell you
Grey does one conversion, USD to ARS, and shows it. What lands at Banco de la Nación, Banco Galicia, Santander Argentina, BBVA Argentina is what was on screen in Manila.
The ARS figure doesn't move
Whatever the market does after you tap send in Manila, the ARS amount arriving at Banco Nación is fixed.
For a bill with a due date in Buenos Aires, this removes the guesswork.
The old way to Buenos Aires, and why it costs more
Ask a bank in Manila to send Argentine pesos and you'll often be told to send dollars instead. Few banks quote ARS at all. Those that do route through dollars with wide margins and slow settlement.
What your recipient sees in Buenos Aires
