How does Kangaroo Service make money?

Two places — both visible to you before you transfer.

1. A small transfer fee

Each corridor has a transfer fee that's published upfront in the rate calculator. On many of our corridors the fee is $0 for online customers; on the rest, it's a small flat amount we publish before you fund. There are no "service" or "processing" fees added later on top of what you see at quote.

2. A small margin on the exchange rate

Like every international remitter, we add a small margin to the wholesale mid-market rate we use as our base. That margin covers the cost of moving the funds, the payout partners on the destination side, our compliance obligations, and the team that keeps the lights on. The margin is already baked into the rate the calculator shows — nothing extra is added between quote and confirmation.

That's it

We don't have other revenue streams stacked on top. No subscription tier, no per-transaction "convenience" surcharge, no kickback from the destination bank, no FX rebate scheme. The whole cost of your transfer is the fee plus the rate you see at quote — and you can always compare the destination amount against the mid-market rate before you decide to send.

The goal of publishing the rate calculator on every page is exactly this transparency: see the full cost up front, decide if it's a deal worth taking, and only then create an account.
