Sending money abroad from Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA

A bank transfer abroad costs more than the listed fee. There is the transfer fee, possibly charges from correspondent banks along the way and, most importantly, the margin on the exchange rate when the money is converted.

Many banks rarely list the margin on the rate as a cost. Check the rate you are offered with the mid-market rate, the midpoint between buy and sell rates you see on financial sites; the gap is what conversion costs you.

Money transfer services frequently offer rates closer to the mid-market rate and lower fees. On GoldexPay we compare what recipients receive with different services, so you can pick the cheapest route. Using a transfer service does not mean closing your account at Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA: you simply pay the service from your account.

About this information

The details on this page come from publicly available data which we refresh regularly. Banks reorganise, change names and retire codes – a directory can be a step behind. The number of codes on this page reflect our own data, not official figures from Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA.

Treat our data as a starting point, not as the final word – the bank details from the recipient are leading. GoldexPay is a comparison site for money transfers and not part of Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA. If you notice a mistake, we appreciate a message.

Verifying the SWIFT code of Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA

The most reliable source for a SWIFT code is the bank details provided by the recipient. If the code you have differs from IBSPIT2U or IBSPIT2UXXX, stop and ask: check with the recipient or with Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA directly.

Errors in the BIC are annoying more than disastrous. Do not forget the IBAN: a mistake there is more difficult to undo than a wrong code.

Most online banking apps check the structure of an IBAN and sometimes look up the BIC automatically. More and more banks check the name against the account. When you pay someone new, many people start with a small test amount.

SEPA payments and the Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA BIC

Since Italy is in SEPA, a euro payment to Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA from another SEPA country normally requires just the IBAN. Most banking apps do not require the BIC for these payments or fill it in for you.

The BIC does matter when the currency is not euros, and for transfers from outside SEPA. Some banks and apps also show a field for the BIC; in that case, enter IBSPIT2U or IBSPIT2UXXX.

Instant payments in euros have become widely supported across SEPA; check with Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA whether it applies to your account. Charges on SEPA payments tend to be low.

Tracking a transfer to or from Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA

An international transfer usually needs anywhere from one to several business days – it depends on currency, route and the banks in between. Payments made after the cut-off time or just before weekends and holidays often go out the next business day. Occasionally a bank asks about the purpose of a payment.

Many banks use SWIFT gpi, which lets them follow a payment from bank to bank. Every gpi transfer gets a unique transaction reference, the UETR that banks can use to trace it. Money transfer services usually show a status in their app showing how far the payment has got.

If the money does not arrive within the expected time, the person who paid should contact their own bank rather than Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA. As a recipient, it helps to look at your account for a slightly lower amount, since fees may have been deducted.

Scams that use SWIFT codes

Stay alert when a contact suddenly wants you to send money to a different account or a bank in another country. A correct SWIFT code tells you nothing about whether the request is genuine – scammers simply use real codes.

Do not trust a phone number in the same message that contains the new account. Watch out for time pressure, unusual wording or an email address that differs by one letter. If money was sent to the wrong account, call your bank right away: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.

Fraud also work the other way: someone claims to have sent too much and wants you to refund the extra via a different route. Do not act before the money has really arrived.

The Euro and what conversion costs you

Most accounts at Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA are usually held in EUR, the national currency of Italy. If you send another currency has to be converted somewhere along the way: by your bank, an intermediary or Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA itself. Each conversion eats into something, even when no fee is shown.

Who converts the money makes a difference. Check how much EUR the recipient gets via several providers; the difference between options can be larger than you expect.

Exchange rates change all the time. With bigger transfers, even seemingly small gap in the rate adds up quickly.

Incoming international payments to Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA

When you are waiting for a payment from another country, send the payer a complete set of details. That means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your IBAN or account number, the BIC IBSPIT2UXXX (or IBSPIT2U) and, often, your address.

You can include Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA and its city as well, because some payment forms have separate fields for them. A typo in your account number can be more trouble than you might think; copy them from your banking app rather than typing.

Do not be surprised if the amount credited is smaller than what the sender paid. Fees for incoming transfers differ from bank to bank – the price list of Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA tells you what applies. Make clear with the sender who covers the fees.

Choosing between the 44 SWIFT codes of Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA

Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA uses 44 different SWIFT/BIC codes. Only one is the head office code, IBSPIT2UXXX; the rest belong to branches or departments.

For most incoming transfers, the head office code IBSPIT2UXXX is what you need. If you have been given a branch code, stick to it rather than replacing it with the head office code.

The safest approach is to take the code directly from the account holder’s statement. Branch codes are more likely to change than the head office code.

Why Cassa di Risparmio del Friuli Venezia Giulia SPA has an 8- and an 11-character code

The layout of a BIC never changes: a bank code of four letters, two for the country and a two-character location code. That gives you IBSPIT2U.

Many payment forms work with either length. If a form asks for eleven characters, use IBSPIT2UXXX; if it wants eight, use IBSPIT2U.

Do not add spaces, dots when you type IBSPIT2U or IBSPIT2UXXX. Pasting the code beats typing it by hand, because one wrong letter changes the bank.
