Wire transfers are one of the fastest and safest ways to send money, which is why they’re the standard payment method for major transactions such as home and car purchases.Â
You can send a transfer through TD Bank’s wire transfer service, using your TD bank account to fund the payment.
How To Send Wire Transfers From TD Bank
To send a domestic or international wire transfer through TD Bank, you’ll have to visit a branch location and provide the information TD needs to get the funds to the right receiving account.
For domestic transfers, bring the following when you go:
- Receiving bank’s name, address and routing number
- Name of the receiving account
- Recipient’s name and complete mailing address
- Recipient’s bank account number
Contact TD Bank at 888-751-9000 to find out the specific information you need to send an international wire transfer. Customer service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
How Much Does It Cost To Send a TD Bank Wire Transfer?
TD Bank charges a fee for incoming and outgoing wires.
| Type of Wire | Fee |
|---|---|
| Receive a wire, domestic and international: | $17.50 |
| Send a domestic or international wires: | $50 |
TD does not list a limit for how much money you can send or receive through a wire limit.
How Long Does a TD Bank Wire Transfer Take?
A domestic wire transfer should only take about a day. An international wire transfer can take several days.
How To Receive a Wire Transfer
If you want to receive a wire transfer to your TD Bank account, provide the sender with the following information:
- TD Bank name and Wilmington, Delaware, as the location
- Routing number 031101266
- Your name
- The number for the account you want to receive the funds
TD Bank makes wired funds available to you the same day the bank receives them.
Alternatives to TD Bank Wire Transfers
You might have no choice but to use a wire transfer if you’re buying a home, but for smaller payments, you likely have other options.
TD Bank has several digital transfer services that let you transfer money to yourself, to another person or to a company. For example, you can transfer money between your TD Bank accounts or between your TD account and an account at another bank.
For payments between friends and family, Zelle is a free option that lets you send money to or request money from just about anyone with a U.S. bank account. TD Bank also offers bill pay, which you can use to pay any bill, even the ones you can’t manage online, such as rent. When time is not of the essence, a cashier’s check might be a good option. Cashier’s checks come from the bank’s account, not the customer’s, so they’re essentially guaranteed to clear. Alternatively, you can purchase a money order from banks, some retail stores and any U.S. post office. Money orders are similar to checks, but they can’t bounce because you pay for them upfront.
