I made a small transfer via my Alaska bank thru Wise to Kapital last week and it worked, But for any decent sized amounts it would be costly as my wires as a geezer are sent out of Alaska for free. Intercam used to levy a small commission on the receiving end.

Hola,I want to share my experience on transferring from Canada to Kapital here in Zihua.
I use Wise for transfer from my CIBC bank, so I deleted my previous Wise account entered my new clabe number and Curp number,did a $1000 Cad transfer to see if it works,voila!I did still go through Intercam website not Kapital.
BTW I received $343mxn more from Wise than I would have using CIBC global transfer.

Thanks for having shared TTAJ, worked for me too this morning.

I’ve been using XE.COM for years but would not work lately, required a new SWIFT code that Kapital can’t provide yet…

Wise uses mid market rate, which is good.

Transaction fee was 1.2-1.3% of the amount which is pretty fair.

Also, XE usually took 3 to 5 days. With WISE it took 3 to 5 minutes to get it. Wow!!!

Went to Kapital today, 10/29/25, They now have permission to exchange $s . They do not have a swift code yet so no ability to receive or make international transfers.

Please tell me how you were able to transfer funds from USA? Gracias

I was informed by a reliable source that no one knows as the fideicomisos complicate the legal transfer of ownership between banking parents let alone the "ownerships" represented by the current Bank.

This is not a case of money and a rubber stamp.

The first key will be who (Intercam or Kapital) sends the reminders of upcoming payments due.

Does anyone know of a probable date when Kapital Banco, successor to Intercam, will obtain a Swift code and be able to transfer and receive funds internationally?Secondly, does anyone know if Kapital Banco will take over the fidiecomiso business that Intercam had?
