Wire transfer with banks (SWIFT)

When doing a SWIFT transfer you can expect to pay a transaction fee that is charged by your bank, and an exchange rate fee. Please make sure that this costs are charged on your side and do not reduce the amount which arrives at our account.

If you face issues with payments via wise.com (example from India):

Wise may not support conversions from your currency to Thai Baht (yet). In that case we have 2 solutions:

1. Use a workaround: Insert all our bank details as recipient. Choose GBP (Great Britain Pound) as the currency you like to send to our THB account. Wise will deposit GBP from your credit card, exchange it to Thai Baht and send it to our account. You will need to specify the GBP amount, for the current exchange calculation you can use google search: „xxx thb In gbp“
   
   
2. You can send USD or INR to our wise account, but we need to add 3% fee to cover the exchange costs on our side.

• We accept cash payments at Royal Phuket Marina or can arrange
• deposit pickups at your hotel (free for amounts over 25,000 THB).
• Balances may be paid in cash upon boarding.
• You can also visit the nearest bank to deposit cash directly into our account, as most ATMs offer this service. 

Note: Payments are accepted in THB; other currencies require prior confirmation and may incur an exchange fee.

We accept credit card payments with ease and security. For deposits, we can send a payment link or meet you with a card reader at your hotel, and for balances, we can come to the boat.

However, a 3% fee applies for credit card processing, handled securely via a trusted third-party provider.

Paypal is a convenient and fast payment provider, which allow also payments via credit card, Apple & Google Pay etc. and exchange currencies.

However, they charge us as the recipienta a high fee. Therefore we need to add this fee (4,5%) to your bill.
