To calculate the amount you'll receive in the USA after Xoom fees and exchange rates:

Formula Used

The calculation follows this formula:

Amount Received (USD) = (Amount Sent (INR) × Exchange Rate) - Xoom Fee

Where:

  • Exchange Rate is the current rate between INR and USD
  • Xoom Fee is calculated as a percentage of the amount sent

Worked Example

Let's say you want to send ₹10,000 from India to the USA. Here's how the calculation works:

  1. Amount sent: ₹10,000
  2. Current exchange rate: 1 INR = 0.012 USD
  3. Xoom fee: 3.5% of ₹10,000 = ₹350
  4. Amount after fee: ₹10,000 - ₹350 = ₹9,650
  5. Amount received: ₹9,650 × 0.012 = $115.80

So you would receive approximately $115.80 in the USA.
