I am trying to set up a company offering various services to the Indian market, but require them to pay in advance of receiving the service. I was just wondering what the most effective way of receiving money from them is? I have thought about cheque but I don't want this to be the only way as there is the obvious issue that I have to wait to arrive in international mail and then for it to clear before I can commence my side of the bargain - which would slow the whole process down. I'm not sure how prominent things like paypal is in India so am unsure whether this form of instant payment is viable. Is a bank transfer feasible - would one bank be better to go with than another and how long does a transfer take from India (PS is it safe to send them my acc. details and sort code?)? Are there any other safe but effective and fast ways of receiving money from Indian customers that anyone may advise me on? Many thanks in advance for all your help.

  1. try wester union or first remit. it is instant. you go to their office, give them the money and details (maybe they even collect it). the person u r sending it to collects it after verifying details.  


  2. go on google and type india money transfers, lots of good information, just to look at how others work with money transfers

  3. I do business with some Indian companies and use PayPal.

    EASY !!
