What affects how much they receive
Two things decide the amount: the provider's fee and the exchange rate it applies. Many providers advertise a low or zero fee but make up for it with a weaker rate. MyRateChecker expresses every rate as a margin against the live mid-market rate, so providers are compared on the same basis and ranked by the total your recipient receives after fees.
