Two words are commonly used in Spanish for "transfer".

One is "traspaso" (usually referring to a transfer from one branch of a bank to another branch of the same bank), and

"transferencia" (which usually refers to transferring money from one bank to a different bank). In either case it is a "transfer".

Johanna, if you wish to make the above distinction,
one possibility is to use:
\"intra-bank transfer\" for the first, and
\"inter-bank transfer\" for the second.
