Sending money abroad has traditionally been expensive, slow, and often confusing, with hidden fees and unfavourable exchange rates making the process more frustrating than it should be. But that is changing.
As more people in the UK invest, relocate, study, or support family overseas, a growing number are turning to online international money transfer services like Travel FX, and saving significant amounts in the process.
Whether you’re paying for a property in Portugal, covering tuition fees in Canada, or sending funds to loved ones, Travel FX offers a faster, more cost-effective, and transparent way to transfer money internationally.
“We Saved Over £900 Transferring Our House Deposit”
When Matt and Sarah decided to buy their dream holiday home in Spain, their solicitor initially quoted them an exchange rate from a well-known UK bank. They were prepared to accept it until they discovered Travel FX.
After obtaining a quote online, they realised they could secure a significantly better exchange rate, saving them over £900 on the transfer. “It was easy, secure, and much faster than we expected,” says Matt. “We even received email updates so we knew exactly when the money landed.”
