There are regulations in the U.S. that help protect your money and keep people, and financial businesses, safe from fraud. As part of these requirements, you may be asked to provide documents that prove your identity and/or your address. We store your date securely and we’ll never share it with anyone.

Occasionally we may ask for further details, but we’ll let you know as soon as possible if that’s the case.

Whatever works for you – app, online, by phone, or talking to one of our experts. And you can pay for your transfer by bank transfer or debit card.

Yes, we’ll send you a confirmation email as soon as the currency has been sent.

No. Our contracts are legally binding. Once you’ve confirmed your transfer (by phone, in branch, online or via our app) it can no longer be cancelled.

The rate you’ll typically see when you do a general search is the ‘interbank rate’ – the wholesale rate at which banks, and major financial institutions, buy and sell currency. This isn’t available to companies or individuals.

At Currencies Direct we buy currency in bulk at wholesale rates and pass the savings to our customers.

The exchange rate changes every few seconds, but once we agree a rate with you that’s the rate you’ll get.

You’ll agree the exchange rate in the app, online, or with your account manager. You’ll be asked to confirm if you’re happy to go ahead with that rate. Once you’ve committed to that rate it is fixed for you, no matter how much the market changes.

Zero. We don’t charge transfer fees.

We buy currency in bulk at wholesale rates not available to companies or individuals. We add a small margin before selling the currency on at rates that are typically more competitive than the banks.
