Stop letting bank fees cut into your budget

For an NGO, transparency and sound management of donations are vital. Traditional banks apply hidden margins and transfer fees (SWIFT) that significantly reduce the amounts allocated to your missions. Discover the difference:

	Traditional Bank	ibani for NGOs
Exchange margin on donations and transfers applied during fund conversion	1.5% – 3.0%	max. 0.4%
Sending fees to foreign projects issuance or SWIFT correspondent fees	CHF 15 – 40 per transfer	CHF 0

Transparency for auditors and donors Applied rate and fees clearly identified	✗ Low (rate often hidden)	✔ Total (detailed exports)
Monthly account maintenance fees	CHF 10 – 30 / month	CHF 0
