Filter by where the provider is licensed, by forward contracts or by a published price. A figure marked floor is the lowest rate published, not the rate most businesses get.

Bank
Convenient, often the most expensive: the margin is built into the rate and rarely stated. Rates for larger amounts are negotiable.
Multi-currency account
Wise, Airwallex, Revolut Business and others publish their margin and give you account details in several currencies. Few offer forward contracts.
FX specialist
Brokers and payment institutions that quote per trade, offer forward contracts and assign a dealer. Best for larger amounts and known future payments.
Published prices
The rest say the rate is set when you trade. That makes them hard to compare from the outside, but not more expensive by default: a dealer quoting per trade can beat a published price on a large amount. What matters is the margin over the mid-market rate on your amount, in writing.
Ask each provider for three things before you sign: the margin over mid-market on your typical amount and currency pair, any fee per payment on top, and the deposit for a forward contract.
The margin is the gap between the mid-market rate and the rate you get. Every 0.1% is 100 on a 100,000 conversion, in whatever currency you convert from.
| Margin | Cost on 100,000 | On 1,000,000 a year |
|---|---|---|
| 0.25% | 250 | 2,500 |
| 0.5% | 500 | 5,000 |
| 1% | 1,000 | 10,000 |
| 2% | 2,000 | 20,000 |
| 3% | 3,000 | 30,000 |
Hedging
Spot
Exchange now at today's rate, settled within two working days. Every provider on this page does it.
Forward contract
Fix today's rate for a payment on a later date, usually up to 12 or 24 months ahead, against a deposit. You must complete it even if the rate turns in your favour.
Limit or stop order
Set a target rate and the provider exchanges automatically when the market reaches it, or caps the loss if it moves the other way.
19 of the 21 specialists whose hedging page we read offer forward contracts. Use the "Offers forwards" filter in the table.

Compare the FX margin, not the transfer fee: on a large payment the margin is most of the cost. Of the 33 FX providers on this page, 10 publish a price (Amnis, CurrencyFair, Currenxie, Finmo, Sokin, WorldFirst, YouBiz, Atlantic Money, Bound, LianLian Global); the rest quote per trade, so ask two or three for a quote on the same amount and currency pair on the same day, and compare each with the mid-market rate.
The difference between the mid-market rate (the midpoint between what banks pay each other to buy and sell a currency) and the rate you are given. A 0.5% margin on a 100,000 conversion costs 500. Some providers show the margin as a separate fee; most build it into the rate.
Their price depends on your volume, the currency pair and the product (spot or forward). The price lists of most dealers say the rate is set at the time of the trade. That is not a reason to accept it: ask for the margin over mid-market in writing.
An agreement to exchange an amount at a rate fixed today, for a payment on a later date. It protects a known future payment, such as a supplier invoice due in three months, from a rate move. Most providers ask for a deposit and can ask for more if the rate moves against you. You must complete the exchange even if the rate later turns in your favour.
A multi-currency account (Wise, Airwallex, Revolut Business) suits frequent payments at a published price, done in an app. An FX specialist suits larger or irregular amounts, forward contracts and a person who deals for you. Many businesses use both: the account for everyday payments and the specialist for large conversions and hedging.
Payment and e-money institutions must safeguard the money you send them for payments, kept apart from their own money, but it is not covered by a deposit guarantee scheme as a bank deposit is. Check each provider's licence on its page. Deposits held against forward contracts can be treated differently from payment money: ask how they are held.
Yes, with a provider that issues local collection accounts: a UK sort code, a US account number or a EUR IBAN in your company's name, so customers and marketplaces pay you as a local payment. The 'What you hold' column shows what each provider gives you. FX dealers usually give you no account: you pay them from your own bank and they pay your beneficiary.
