What we've measured on USD → GTQ

Across 44 days of our own recorded quotes, the gap between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 3.8% (widest single day: 4.0%). On a 1,000 USD transfer that is the difference between the best and worst choice.

The leader has not changed once in that window — TapTap Send has topped this corridor every day we have recorded it. That makes it unusually stable, but it is still worth checking before you send.

Provider rates on this corridor are measured against Wise's published mid-market rate. No central bank publishes a rate for GTQ, so the yardstick here comes from Wise — which we also rank, and which therefore sits exactly at the reference by definition. We disclose this rather than hide it.

Recipients in Guatemala can be paid via a bank account, cash pickup, a mobile wallet and a debit card, based on what the providers above actually price for this corridor.

Figures come from our own append-only rate history, not from provider marketing. See the methodology and rate trends.

What is the cheapest way to send USD to GTQ?

TapTap Send currently offers the best value for USD → GTQ, delivering 7,600 GTQ for 1,000 USD. We rank by the total amount received after fees and exchange-rate markup, updated every 4 hours. It has also led on every one of the 44 days we have recorded this corridor, so the answer here has been stable.

What is the current USD to GTQ exchange rate?

The best available rate is 1 USD = 7.60 GTQ via TapTap Send. The reference (mid-market) rate is 7.64, taken from Wise's published mid-market rate. Across 44 days of our own records, the spread between the best and worst provider on this corridor has run at a median of 3.8%. Rates are updated every 4 hours.

Are there hidden fees when sending USD to GTQ?

On this corridor the two costs split roughly 1.25% in visible fees and 1.29% in exchange-rate markup, averaged over the 6 providers here that publish a fee — so the markup is the larger part, about 51% of what you pay. 2 of them charge no fee at all on this corridor, which is exactly why fee alone is a poor guide. We rank by the amount your recipient actually receives, which captures both. Learn how fees work →
