TLDR : Answer Summary
There are several options for transferring funds from an Australian bank account to a K bank account in Thailand. Popular services mentioned include Wise and Ria Money Transfer. For larger sums, using wire transfers via SWIFT codes is a safe option. It's recommended to check with your bank about these services.

If your bank does wire transfers using SWIFT codes, that’s a safe and easy way to transfer large sums. Ask your bank about it. If small sums, Wise, Remitly, etc works fine.

you can always do a bank to bank transfer just inquire with your bank in Australia to see how much it costs to transfer funds
