The perks of sending money online

There’s no doubt that online transfers are now the smart and convenient way of sending funds overseas – at least if you’re using a reliable and innovative provider. MTFX offers the following benefits at a glance.

Secure transfers every time

Transact in confidence and move your money safely anywhere in the world with your secure, easy-to-use online account. Once you initiate your transfer, track it online to verify your beneficiary has received the funds.

24/7 service

Brick and mortar financial institutions like banks have opening and closing hours. So you must do things on their time.

On the other hand, you never have to line up to use services from an online provider, and there are no wait times when you decide to send money.

As long as you have a stable internet connection, you can send money online with more flexibility and 24/7 accessibility.

Send money from anywhere

Tap or click the right places on your smart device and watch the magic happen. It doesn’t matter where you are as long as you have a working internet connection.

Incredible speed and efficiency

You can access the services you need anytime, anywhere, which means your transfer gets processed as soon as you decide to initiate it.

This speed ensures you always make your international payments on time, taking the stress out of sending money across geographical borders.

Great affordability

An online money transfer operator has low overheads and generally charges a low service fee. If you decide to use such a provider, you can enjoy the best rates on the market and lower transaction costs to save on every transfer.

In contrast, banks have additional costs for the upkeep of branches, and they pass these costs to customers.

What’s the best way to send money online?

Find the best way to send money online internationally based on these factors:

Exchange rates
Transfer fees
Transfer time
Payment experience
Safety

Generally, your options boil down to using a bank or a currency specialist like MTFX. Let’s see how either one stacks up against the other.

MTFX Vs. The Bank

MTFX vs. The Bank: Exchange rates

MTFX is cheaper because we offer competitive exchange rates with no markups. We are transparent about our rates; you always get the mid-market rate.

Your average bank usually has a 2%-5% markup on the exchange rate you receive because that’s how banks profit – through hidden fees.

MTFX vs. The Bank: Transfer fees

Transfer fees are another sneaky cost to watch out for when you send a money transfer online. MTFX offers low and transparent fees, and we always disclose the costs upfront.

On the other hand, your regular bank often charges an outgoing fee, an initiation fee, a tracer fee, a receiving fee, and other costs. It gets more expensive once you factor in third-party charges.

MTFX vs. The Bank: Processing speed

MTFX takes 24-48 hours to deliver funds to your recipient. Same-day transfers are also available if you’re looking for the fastest way to send money online.

Bank transfers tend to arrive later than 48 hours – usually 3-5 days. In addition, your money will move more slowly if it has to pass through several intermediary banks and if there’s manual paperwork and other arduous tasks involved.

MTFX vs. The Bank: Payment experience

You get specialist service when dealing with a dedicated money transfer service. Our experts are here to provide personalized guidance to enhance your overseas transfer experience.

Banks are not specialists when it comes to international money transfers. They’re diversified organizations, so you may not enjoy the smoothest payment experience when using your bank for overseas transfers.

MTFX vs. The Bank: Safety

Banks are generally trusted financial institutions, and many people entrust banks to handle their money daily. The good news is that MTFX is also a regulated service provider, trusted with international money transfers for over 25 years.

While banks are good when it comes to their core services, like processing deposits and withdrawals and servicing loans, they’re not FX experts. At MTFX, our core service is foreign exchange and global payments. It’s what we do every day, so we do it better than banks – faster, cheaper, and more securely.

Open up a world of excellent exchange rates

Exchange rates are a big deal when converting currency. MTFX wants to do business with you, which is why we offer mid-market exchange rates as an attractive proposition.

We handle large transfers in bulk, so we can still make it work on skinny margins.

Are you a savvy saver? Then MTFX is your secret to low cost international payments in a convenient and technologically efficient package.

A thousand reasons to use MTFX

Our customers regularly save hundreds and thousands of dollars when transacting with MTFX. That's because our exchange rates beat the banks by 3-5%, which means for every $30,000, you save as much as $1,500.

Even for smaller, regular transactions where you save hundreds of dollars each time, it eventually adds up to thousands over time. It’s every reason you need to start sending money with MTFX.

No place for hidden fees

The mid-market rate is the standard exchange rate, and since it’s what we offer, we have no room for hidden transfer fees. This transparency is a breath of fresh air compared to some providers with high exchange rate markups disguised as no-fee transfers.

Cut transfer costs. Pocket the cash

When you have lower transfer costs, you get to keep more cash in your pocket, and there are no extra costs to make up for conversion losses. The savings are huge regardless of how much or how often you transact.

Our specialists will be there every step of the way

You benefit from currency conversion with a human touch when using MTFX. A common disadvantage of online financial services that’s often cited is limited interaction between the client and provider.

Luckily, our dedicated currency specialists are pretty hands-on and available when you need to speak to a real person with expertise in international money exchange.

Our foreign exchange specialists are here to help, answer your questions, and ensure the currency transfer platform is set up for your needs. So expect a call from one of our specialists as soon as you register your account.
