ING international transfers no longer available
ING previously offered customers international money transfers through a partnership with OFX.
However, as of July 2019, this service has been discontinued. As a result, ING no longer offers international transfers from any of its accounts.
What does this mean for me?
If you’re an ING corporate or institutional account holder in the United States and want to make an overseas payment, you will no longer be able to transfer directly from your ING account. Instead, you’ll have to use a third-party money transfer service to complete your transaction.
What other products and services did ING Direct offer?
The ING Direct International Transfers service provided by OFX was also available to business customers. It offered competitive exchange rates for small to medium businesses and the same fee structure as applied to personal customers. Every client was also assigned to an accredited foreign exchange dealer to help manage their international payments.
Bottom line
ING Direct no longer offers international transfers to its customers. Instead, you can compare all money transfer providers to find the cheapest and safest way to send money overseas.
