Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to send money with Cosmo Payment?+
A bank transfer costs USD 5.00 per bank transfer, charged as a flat amount rather than a percentage of what you send. On top of that, the exchange rate carries a margin of 3.5%. Budget both together: the fee is predictable, but the rate margin means large sums cost proportionally more than the headline charge suggests.
How big is the exchange rate markup?+
The margin added to the exchange rate is 3.5%, which places Cosmo Payment at 90 out of 107 brands on that measure. The median across money transfer brands is 0.53%, so this sits among the wider spreads in the group and matters more than the fee on bigger payments.
How long does a payout take?+
Delivery takes 1-3 business days, so money does not arrive instantly. Payouts can run to bank, cash pickup and wallet, and that window is the published timing for the transfer. If a recipient needs cash for something fixed, send with time to spare rather than against the clock.
Where can the money be paid out?+
Payouts cover bank, cash pickup and wallet, so a recipient can be paid into a bank account, collect cash in person, take the money to a wallet, or have it sent to a card. That range covers most payout needs without switching providers, and keeps every route inside the same delivery window of 1-3 business days.
Is Cosmo Payment regulated?+
Cosmo Payment is registered with the Financial Conduct Authority in the UK as FRN 900015, and the company behind it is CP Solutions Limited, headquartered in Isle of Man. That registration puts the business inside the UK's regulated perimeter, which is the standard to judge the account against before sending a large sum.
How do I get help?+
Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so you can email, phone or use the help centre. A phone line matters for a transfer that is stuck or a recipient whose details need correcting, and the help centre covers routine questions on fees and delivery times.
Who is Cosmo Payment for?+
It fits senders who want one flat charge of USD 5.00 per bank transfer per bank transfer and several payout routes at once, including cash pickup and card. It suits businesses paying regular transfers rather than occasional ones, and anyone who values a phone support line on email, phone and help centre over the narrowest rate margin.
