Cheapest way is to use United Bank Limited's Click and Remit.
I have been using it for about 5 years now.

Since you're in the tri-state... wire transfer to bank account is cheaper than western union, and many desi stores provide the service. However, western union is faster and more reliable.

Western Union is the most expensive way of sending money to Pak.

money gram is way better than western union, the fee is low and currency rates are better than western union and the money gets there instantly. The worst way is wire transfer it takes around 3 days and when the person in pak gets it the bank cuts around $20

Sluggish


my cousin recommended ubl, but i used pakremit, they have a really annoying verification process but i guess at least its safe. they charge 500rps for the transaction. Which is not that bad.

the pakremit thing is a lil slow but I think it's better than western union and all ... I still say bank transfer is the worst way to send money. People in my bank always promise the money wont get when the person in pakiland gets it but banks always end up cutting money there plus there's the dollar exchange rate ..

I choose money gram if it's urgent and pakremit if I have some time
