Foreign exchange, without the middleman

There are two exchange rates.You've only ever been offered one.

The real rate is the one banks quote each other. The rate you get is worse, and the difference never appears on your receipt. ZenFX matches you directly with someone who wants the opposite trade — so you both get the real one.

How it works

Somebody wants exactly what you have.

You have pounds and need francs. Across town, someone has francs and needs pounds. The old system puts a dealer between you and charges you both. ZenFX just introduces you.

Step one

Say what you want

Name the amount and the rate you'll accept. Take the live rate now, or set your own and wait for it.

Step two

Get matched

ZenFX finds someone wanting the opposite trade and pairs you at the mid-market rate. No dealer, no spread.

Step three

Spend it

Your new currency lands on a card. Tap and pay wherever you're going, or hold it until you travel.

Independent systems all have to agree before a trade is final. Once they do, the record can't be quietly edited later — not by anyone, including us.

Proof, not a promise

Every trade leaves a receipt you can check.

What you get

Built for the trip, not the trading floor.

Plan ahead

Set your rate before you travel

Going away in spring? Name your rate now. The order waits until someone takes the other side, and your travel money is ready before you've packed.

Spend

Visa and Mastercard

Every currency you hold gets its own card. Tap and pay abroad with what you already exchanged — no airport queue, no counting notes.

Custody

Held at real institutions

Barclays, Deutsche Bank, UBS, JPMorgan, DBS, MUFG and HSBC — one for each currency. Your money doesn't sit with us.

Final

Settlement that can't be rewritten

Independent systems must agree before a trade is final. Once they do the record is fixed, and nobody can quietly edit it afterwards.

Proof

A receipt for every trade

What you gave, what you got, the rate and the moment — sealed, and verifiable by anyone you need to show.

Tax

Reports that write themselves

Gains calculated on your chosen basis and formatted to the international standard, across seven jurisdictions.
