International Bank Accounts & e-Wallets in Colombo: what to know

Global payment accounts help people in Colombo, Sri Lanka get paid by clients, marketplaces and platforms in other countries, then convert the money into LKR (Sri Lankan rupee). They are popular with freelancers, online sellers and remote workers in Colombo.

Currency in Sri Lanka
LKR · Sri Lankan rupee
Local accounts in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka does not use the international IBAN scheme domestically: accounts are addressed by the bank code, branch code and the bank-specific account number, with mobile-wallet accounts identified by the phone number.
Payments in Sri Lanka
LankaPay, operated by LankaClear under CBSL oversight, runs the Common Electronic Fund Transfer Switch (CEFTS) for instant 24/7 interbank transfers, the SLIPS bulk clearing system and JustPay for mobile app payments; eZ Cash and other wallets ride on these rails.

Before you sign up in Colombo

Check which currencies you can receive, the conversion fee to LKR (Sri Lankan rupee), and the withdrawal fee to a local account in Sri Lanka.
