Keep Your Money Moving, Even From Miles Away.
Send money through VM Money Transfer directly into a VM Building Society account — yours or someone else’s. Fast, secure, and always connected to home.
Sending Home, Without The Wait
School fees. Groceries. Utility bills. A little extra to help out. However you support the people and places you love, Direct to Bank makes it easier — no lines and no delays.
Your money goes straight into an account in minutes — quick, secure, and ready to use. And when you send to your own VMBS account, you’re not just moving money — you’re putting yourself in a stronger position to:
- Pay bills, loans, and standing orders in Jamaica without delay.
- Keep funds ready to grow in iSave or other high-yield accounts.
- Skip the cost and waiting time of traditional wire transfers.

Usually within minutes — faster than a phone call back home.

Frequently Asked Questions
A few things VM Members abroad often ask.
Do I need my own VMBS account to use this?
No. You can send money directly to someone else’s VMBS account.
Can I send in different currencies?
Yes. You can send USD, CAD, or GBP into VMBS accounts in the same currency, or have them converted to JMD at today’s rate.
How long does it take?
Transfers usually arrive within minutes once processed by your remittance provider — often faster than you’d expect.
Why send to myself instead of using a wire transfer?
It’s faster, more affordable, and gives you immediate access to pay bills, cover loans, or grow savings and investments in Jamaica — without the cost and hassle of traditional wires.
What if the person I’m sending to doesn’t have a VMBS account?
Encourage them to open one — it’s quick, and once they do, the money will go straight in.
Is there a limit on how much I can send?
Yes. Limits vary by remittance partner. We’ll guide you to the best option based on your needs.
How will I know the money has arrived?
You or your recipient can confirm instantly through VM Online Banking or the VM Express Mobile App.
