With OFX, there are no strict minimum or maximum limits for personal transfers, although the banks may double-check certain larger amounts. This flexibility makes it easy to send anything from a few hundred dollars for personal expenses to tens of thousands for tuition, property, or business purposes.

According to OFX, Spot rates are the current exchange rates at which specific currencies can be bought or sold on currency exchange markets. Spot rates fluctuate by the second.

Sending money to the UK online is generally more cost-effective. Money changers with a retail store have to pay for rent, staff, and insurance, with you covering the cost of these additional third-party charges. Online money transfer providers don’t have these large costs, making it easier to provide better exchange rates and lower fees when you send money. Some stores may also have limited currency availability.
Like all reputable money exchanges, we are registered with AUSTRAC and regulated by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC).
S Money complies with the relevant laws pertaining to privacy, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism finance. This means you are required to provide I.D. when you place an order. It also means the order must be paid for by the same person ordering the currency and you must show your identification again when receiving your order.
