More →International Payments by Pound Sterling Live
Far better rates than the banks and a 0% transfer fee, with your own account manager, through two payment partners we have vetted and worked with for years.
We deliver more currency for your pounds than any bank.
Our partners quote a rate far closer to the market, with a 0% transfer fee, so more of your money arrives as currency. A bank builds its charge into the rate: by our own checks, the five biggest UK high street banks keep between ยฃ275 and ยฃ460 of a ยฃ10,000 euro transfer in the rate and fees. With us, that difference is yours.
Your own account manager
The same specialist every time, on a direct line. No switchboard, no call centre, and a free quote on your amount before you commit to anything.
ControlFix a rate, or wait for a better one
A forward contract locks today's rate for a later payment. A market order waits for the rate you want. Trade online or with your dealer.
How we choosePreferred partners, not a directory
Both FCA-authorised with client funds safeguarded, vetted against the same criteria, and dealt with at owner level. Pound Sterling Live never holds your money.
