What type of account the receiver in Iran should have?
The account should be in local currency (Rial) and a centralized type. ZTransfer can not deposit into the accounts that are in foreign currencies. We don’t deliver cash. The receiver should have a centralized account in one of national or private banks. With centralized accounts (non traditional/motemarkez), such as Sepehr or Parsian, the receiver will receive the money in the same day that we deposit into it. Traditional accounts, current and saving, are very slow for transferring money and difficult to track the money. Therefore we cannot transfer money to any traditional account in Iran.Back To Top
Shall I mention the receiver's name in the Wire Transfer?
No, you should not mention the receiver's name as the beneficiary, because the beneficiary of the wire transfer is ZTransfer Inc. If you mention the receiver's name as the beneficiary, our bank would not accept the money. You may like to mention only to the order number.Back To Top
