Services for expatriates in Spain

For expatriates residing in Spain, managing regular financial commitments between countries can be challenging due to fluctuating exchange rates and potential bank fees. Currencies Direct addresses these concerns through a suite of services designed to facilitate seamless international money management:

Regular transfers: Whether it’s pension payments, salary transfers, or remittances to family, Currencies Direct enables customers to set up automated, regular transfers. This service ensures timely payments and offers the convenience of managing transactions online or via their mobile app, available 24/7.
Multi-currency card: The Currencies Direct multi-currency Mastercard debit card allows expatriates to hold and spend in multiple currencies. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who travel frequently or have financial obligations in different countries, as it enables spending like a local without incurring additional exchange fees.
Personal account management: Each client is assigned a dedicated account manager who provides personalised assistance, helping to navigate the complexities of foreign exchange and to optimise the timing of transfers to take advantage of favorable exchange rates.

Services for property owners in Spain

Owning a holiday or second home in Spain involves various financial transactions, from purchasing the property to managing ongoing expenses. Currencies Direct offers specialised services to streamline these processes:

PropertyPay: This bespoke solution is designed to simplify the property purchasing process. By facilitating payments directly to property sellers or real estate agents, Currencies Direct helps clients avoid local banking fees and ensures that transactions are completed efficiently. Additionally, their partnership with CaixaBank allows clients to bypass fees that Spanish banks typically charge for large payments, such as those associated with property purchases.
Large transfers: For significant investments like property purchases, renovations or luxury goods, Currencies Direct provides tailored support to manage large transfers. Clients benefit from competitive exchange rates and the expertise of their account managers to execute transactions at optimal times, potentially resulting in substantial savings.
Regular payments management: Homeowners can set up regular transfers to cover recurring expenses such as mortgage payments, utility bills and maintenance costs. This service ensures that all obligations are met promptly, with the added advantage of managing these payments through an easy-to-use online platform or mobile app.

With a global network managing over €11 billion in international payments annually to more than 120 countries, Currencies Direct maintains a strong presence in Spain, operating over 20 local branches.
