How It Works

Start exchanging and transferring funds in 4 easy steps:

1. Set Up Your Account

Getting started is fast and easy. Simply register for an account online (it only takes a few minutes) and a client manager will contact you to finalize your account set-up and assist with transfers.

If you require assistance registering your account online, you can contact a customer support representative by phone 24/7.

2. Get a Quote and Lock-in Your Rate

Get a real-time quote for the amount and currencies you would like to transfer. If you like the rate, simply lock it in and tell OFX where to send the funds (you’ll need the recipient banking details)

We offer three convenient ways to get a quote and manage your FX transactions, 7 days a week, 365 days a year:

  • Online (through OFX’s website)
  • By Phone (24-hour support) 
  • Mobile App (download the app to your cell phone)

3. Send Your Funds

Send the funds to OFX. For your convenience, you can send funds through three different payment methods:

  • Bill Payment
  • Direct Debit from your bank account
  • Wire Transfer from your bank account

4. Your Funds are Delivered

OFX will deliver the funds to your recipient. Transfers usually take 1 - 2 days. You can track all your transfers online or with the mobile app.
