Our Verdict<\/h3>

A real win with Currencies Direct is that it does away with transfer fees for 90% of its transactions. And fees that are charged for the other 10% are shown upfront along with the exchange rates so there\u2019ll be no hidden fees to worry about. To help you secure the best rates, you\u2019ll have the use of forward contracts, limit orders and other advanced forex tools. There\u2019s also an app to help manage your transfers. <\/p>

Currencies Direct only supports around 40 currencies so it might not be able to work with all your exchange needs. And forget about this provider if your recipient doesn\u2019t have a bank account as there are no cash pickups. <\/p>
