business_center

Built for business payments

SuperPay pays suppliers, contractors, and staff in South Africa from your Alaan business account. It is not a personal remittance service, so it is for company payments rather than money sent between individuals.

No transfer fee, same day

No correspondent banks and no intermediary charges, so what you send is what lands. Most corridors settle the same business day, against the two to five a SWIFT wire takes.

AED to ZAR questions

What is the AED to ZAR rate today?expand_more
1 AED is 4.4329 ZAR as of 12 October 2026 at 06:27 UTC. That is the rate you would get sending AED with Alaan today, margin included, so it is what the converter above uses too. A bank will usually quote you something further from the mid-market benchmark than this.
Why is my bank's rate different?expand_more
Banks quote you the mid-market rate plus a margin, and the margin is where they make their money on the transfer. A 3% margin on AED 10,000 is AED 300 that never appears as a fee on your statement. It just arrives as a smaller number at the other end.
How much is AED 1,000 in ZAR?expand_more
AED 1,000 is about 4,432.87 ZAR at today's rate. The table above has the other common amounts.
What is the cheapest way to send AED to South Africa?expand_more
It depends on the amount and how fast you need it, but the two things worth checking are the FX margin and whether there are correspondent bank fees in the middle. Those two, not the headline fee, are where most of the cost sits. If you are paying a business in South Africa, SuperPay sends from your company's AED account with no transfer fee and no intermediary banks, so the rate you see is close to what lands. It is a business product, so it does not cover personal transfers.
