About Us


First Rate FX Head Office - 25 Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London

Our Company was incorporated in 2005 to provide a cost effective alternative to the foreign exchange services offered by the High Street banks. Traditionally individuals and businesses have changed their currency with the banks mostly at unattractive rates of exchange. Our speciality is in offering a superior service in comparison to other providers, whilst maintaining excellent rates which are rarely matched by our competitors.

Please thank all your team for the excellent service that we received from all at First Rate FX, you certainly took the pressure off us and our money was sorted out so quickly and efficiently. It took much longer for HSBC to send half a mile down the road to Barclays Bank. Thank you again
