These settle for less than anything above and the figure is real. It is also not the cost: the payer has to buy the asset and the recipient has to sell it, and both spreads are set by an exchange and not recorded here.

Fee data on UnifyPay is indicative reference information, not a quotation. Rates change without notice, vary by contract, volume, risk profile and card mix, and many local rails publish no rate card at all. Always confirm against your provider's own pricing before making a commercial decision.
