AED to PHP rate today
The mid-market rate for sending money from the UAE to Philippines, plus what's moving it — in plain language.
For OFWs supporting family back home, the AED to PHP rate matters. This page gives you the live mid-market peso rate, its 30-day trend, and easy-to-read updates on what's moving it — a clear reference before you send money from the UAE to the Philippines.
30-day trend
▲ 0.2%It's been pretty steady over the last month.
What is the mid-market rate?
The mid-market rate is the “true” midpoint between the buy and sell price of a currency — the rate banks and providers see between themselves. It's the fairest reference point, but it's not the rate you'll actually get: every provider adds a margin and fees on top.
Think of it as the sticker price for Philippine Peso. When you send money to Philippines, the rate you receive will be a little below this — and how much below is exactly what's worth comparing. Wasli shows you the mid-market number so you always have an honest baseline to judge any offer against.

Check the mid-market AED to PHP rate above — the honest midpoint before any provider adds a margin. It's your benchmark for everything else.

Compare the rate and the fee together
A great-looking rate with a high fixed fee can still be a poor deal, especially on smaller amounts. Look at both, and measure each provider's rate against the mid-market number.

Send with your chosen provider

Good to know: The peso tends to track broad US dollar moves. Since the dirham is pegged to the dollar, big USD swings often show up in your AED to PHP rate — the trend chart above makes those shifts easy to see.

Common questions
How much is 1 AED in PHP today?+
The live mid-market AED to PHP rate is shown at the top of this page and updates through the day. That's the fair midpoint reference — the amount a provider actually gives you when sending money from the UAE to Philippines will be slightly lower once their margin and fees are added.
What is the cheapest way to send money from the UAE to Philippines?+
There's no single cheapest provider all the time — it changes with the rate and fees each one sets. The reliable method is to compare the exchange rate AND the transfer fee together against the mid-market rate shown here. The smaller the gap from mid-market, the better the deal.
Why is the AED to PHP rate I'm offered lower than the mid-market rate?+
Providers add a margin on top of the mid-market rate, plus any fixed fee. That difference is how they earn money on the transfer. Comparing that gap between providers is the clearest way to see who is genuinely cheapest.
Is now a good time to send money to Philippines?+
Rates move a little every day. The 30-day trend above shows the recent direction in plain terms. Small moves add up on larger transfers, so it can pay to check the trend before you send.
How long does a money transfer from the UAE to Philippines take?+
It depends on the provider and method — some transfers to Philippines arrive within minutes, others take a business day or two. Speed, rate, and fee all vary by provider, which is why it's worth comparing before you choose.
Does Wasli transfer my money to Philippines?+
No. Wasli helps you understand exchange rates and compare providers. You send through the provider you choose — Wasli never holds or moves your funds.
