Services available
International Transfers
Our online system allows you to book exchange rates, set up your payee’s banking details and make an international payment
Forward contract
A Forward Contract is a “buy now – pay later” transfer that allows you to lock in an exchange rate today for a future transfer, between days and twelve months from today. A Forward Contract is a legally binding agreement by both parties. Please note that the forward exchange rate is not a forecast of the future direction of the exchange rate.
Limit Orders
A Limit Order is a very flexible tool that you can use to nominate a target rate that you are hoping to convert at and then let us monitor the market for this rate without you having to be in front of a computer at all times. You can change or withdraw the Limit Order until it has been triggered. Once it has been triggered it becomes a legally binding agreement by both parties.

Regular International Payments provides a quick and simple way to make recurring international payments.
