Testimonials

E Beall

GC Partners has been a wonderful asset to my financial team as we live between New York and Rome, and consequently need to transfer currencies on a frequent basis. Their service is excellent – efficient and yet personal. I recommend them highly.

L Thompson

I was in a bind and needed to transfer money to purchase a home in Italy. I was given contact information for GC Partners and received an immediate reply. Then we set up a time later that day to help me through the process. They made everything so easy. I am very grateful for the help received

FAQs

Unlike high-street banks, GC Partners offers more competitive exchange rates when making international payments. Furthermore, they offer a range of currency services aimed at delivering cost savings and managing currency volatility risks. Additionally, you will be assisted by a dedicated account manager who will assist you at every stage.

Cost savings will vary but can be between 1 and 4%. Savings will include bank charges, receiving fees, and commissions whilst getting you a fantastic exchange rate at the same time. 

Choose from Spot Deals which are ideal if you need to send money straight away. Forward Deals is a buy now, pay later option. By paying a small deposit, you will secure your exchange rate and the currency will be held for you until you are ready to pay the balance. Ideal for delayed completions or stage payments when buying off-plan. Limit Orders allow you to set a rate that you would realistically like to achieve, and if the rate hits that limit, GC Partners will automatically purchase the currency for you.

You can transfer any $250 upwards – from small recurring payments to large property purchases we have an option to suit everyone

Once your account is set up and the funds are cleared with us, most transfers are completed within 24 hours – sometimes even faster depending on the destination country.

GC Partners is a UK-registered company authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and registered as a Money Services Business, regulated by HM Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”). They follow strict guidelines to ensure your money is protected. Funds are held in segregated client accounts which means client money is not an asset of their business. They are safe and secure every step of the way.

GC Partners do not charge any fees or charges. This makes us a perfect choice for currency exchange and potentially much less expensive than transferring via your bank.
