Better exchange rates for sending money abroad
IFA Markets FX is your alternative to traditional banks — offering competitive exchange rates and bespoke currency services tailored to expats, overseas property buyers, and international transfers.
International money transfers, tailored to your purpose
We focus on the reasons people move money — not just the mechanics. Whatever your transfer is for, our specialists build a solution around it.
Buying Property Abroad
Whether you're purchasing a holiday home or an investment property overseas, currency fluctuations can add thousands to your costs. Our forward contracts and market orders let you lock in a rate and protect your deposit, so the price you budget is the price you pay.
Emigrating or Living Abroad
Moving your life overseas means moving your savings, pensions, and regular income too. We make emigration transfers simple and cost-effective — from one-off lump sums to scheduled monthly payments that keep your new life running smoothly.
Repatriating Funds Home
Returning to the UK or bringing overseas savings, property sale proceeds, or inheritance back home? We help private clients repatriate funds smoothly and cost-effectively, with competitive rates and a dedicated specialist to guide you at every step.
