💡 Many Koreans living in the US or Europe use Wise to send money back home to Korea. But what if you need to send money the other way — from Korea to the US?

Wise is widely used for sending money from overseas to Korea. But if you're looking for a service that lets you send Korean Won (KRW) as US Dollars (USD) to the United States, Coinshot is exactly what you need.

No bank visits. No complicated paperwork. Everything from sign-up to transfer is done entirely on your smartphone. Let us introduce Coinshot — the international money transfer app built for you!

1

Sign Up Online and Start Sending — No Bank Visit Required

One of the biggest hassles of sending money abroad from Korea is having to visit a bank in person. Coinshot eliminates that entirely.

🏦

All You Need Is an Existing Korean Bank Account

No need to open a new account. Just use the Korean bank account you already have and you're ready to go.

🔗

Official Open Banking Support

Just like Toss Bank or Kakao Bank, Coinshot officially supports Open Banking. Link your account to manage auto-withdrawals, check balances, and handle everything in one app.

⚡

Connect Open Banking Right During Sign-Up

You can link your Open Banking account directly during the registration process. Once set up, sending money to the US — whether for living expenses or tuition — takes just a few taps.

2

A Flat Fee of ₩5,000 — No Matter How Much You Send

When sending money to the US through a traditional bank, you may face hidden costs on top of the transfer fee — including intermediary fees and recipient fees. Not with Coinshot.
