Why many companies pay more than they think.
Currency exchange often appears as a free service — but appearances are deceptive. The true costs are hidden in the exchange rate and are not transparently comprehensible for many companies. Banks and traditional payment service providers add an undetectable additional charge to the market exchange rate (so-called mid-market rate) — sometimes up to 2%.
What starts as an invisible margin quickly adds up to significant additional costs — without them ever appearing as a separate item in your accounting department.
We create transparency. With clear, comprehensible exchange rates and solutions that sustainably reduce your FX costs.
Benefit from greater transparency
From dozens of discussions with CEOs and CFO's, we were able to gain very valuable experience and constantly expand our expertise in various industries. This shows that:

Some banks still only offer telephone trading and no online platform for currency exchange.
We help you to bring more transparency to your currency trading and show you what margin your bank is making in pips and basis points.
We'll show you how high your annual costs really are.
Through our analysis, you'll learn why it's never a good idea to have just one (or two weak) alternatives.
