I love this company…I’ve saved hundreds of dollars in exchange. They are nice, easy to deal with and once your account is set up it’s a breeze. I just did a trade for USD over chat, while I was working on other things. Took less than 3 minutes! Happily recommend over any major bank!

How is it that we can offer lower exchange rates than Canadian banks?

Due to our large transaction volume, we have negotiated special foreign exchange pricing.

The result? Lower margins for us, which we then partially transfer to our clients.

This translates to more money going straight to your pocket.
