"Never send cash via mail or in a parcel. It can get lost or stolen."
Ways to send money internationally
Sure.
But I have sent small amounts of cash in standard letter envelopes to another country in Europe plenty of times and will continue to do so, in the full knowledge that it might get lost or even stolen, as a birthday gift, as a First Communion gift, or as a Thank You for a small job done voluntarily for me, with the bank note carefully put inside a card or wrapped around with my Thank You letter. It always arrived at its destination.
So before we loose sight of the commemoration coin and dive into the world of global payment with Wise and Charles Schwab and Revolut and Visa and all that, here is what is says on the website of the Pilgrim Office (link already provided earlier) about how to pay for the coin, also already explained by
@trecile earlier:
Envoyer 10 € et copies de première et dernière page de la credencial à:

avec vos noms et adresse, bien sûr
There is no bank account number to be seen anywhere to make a wire transfer; there is no option to pay by credit card or by PayPal. So what is the aspiring owner of the
medaille supposed to do other than pop a bank note into an envelope and mail it? Get a prepaid card and load it with €10 and send it to them? Really?
