Follow the simple steps to receive your money from overseas:
- Credit Union SA members can simply visit Convera.
- Complete the relevant information in the online form and submit.
- You will be then presented with the deposit instructions. Please save these for your reference and email them to your payee and ask them to follow the payment instructions.
You’ll need to advise the person sending the money that these instructions must be presented to their bank when sending the payment to you, and:
- To deposit the amount into the account as stated in the instructions in local currency (e.g. if they are in the US, they make payment in US dollars).
- Ensure that “Payment Notes” are included in the bank’s reference field, as specified in the deposit instructions.
Your payment will normally be received within two to three days of it being sent, providing there are no unforeseen delays.
