To proceed, you will have to log in to your account and choose the best option for you:

• Create a Send Money
• Create a Top Up

Create a Send Money

If you choose to “Send Money”, this means you need to send money to your CurrencyFair account. We will automatically exchange and transfer the money out when it arrives. You should be aware that the exchange rate can go up or down between the time you set up the transaction and when the money arrives in your CurrencyFair account and the exchange occurs. If you are looking to exchange and transfer out an exact amount, we would recommend using the Top-Up option.

• Select “Send Money”.
• Enter the amount and choose the currency that you intend to send in and the currency that you wish to exchange and transfer.
• Provide any personal details or documentation that may be required.
• Next, choose the bank account that you would like the funds to be transferred.
• You then need to choose your deposit method. Depending on the currency and amount of your transaction, you will have a choice of options for sending your money into CurrencyFair. All customers can send in money to their CurrencyFair account by bank transfer. 
• If bank transfer is the only deposit method available, we’ll automatically present you with the specific bank details in order to send your money to CurrencyFair. Make sure to enter your unique CurrencyFair reference presented on the screen when instructing your payment from your nominated bank account. This helps us match your money to your account without delay.
