The easiest way to find a PTT (Turkish Post) branch is via Google Maps — just search 'PTT'. Transfers are available at almost any post office, including one at Istanbul's new airport. PayPorter locations can also be found by searching 'PayPorter' on Maps.

Istanbul's new airport (IST) has a PTT branch that reportedly handles money transfers. PTT location data on the Zolotaya Korona website is generally accurate, but PayPorter listings are often outdated — it's a franchise network where outlets open and close frequently.
