No fat-finger typos. No lost reference numbers. Just instant transfers powered by Plaid.
Whether buying foreign property, relocating abroad, or paying international tuition, moving large sums brings a distinct spike in stress. When six-figure sums are involved, "hoping" you copied that 22-digit IBAN correctly just doesn't cut it.
At CurrencyFair, high-value global transfers are our speciality. And to make your biggest life milestones completely stress-free, we’ve launched Express Deposits powered by Plaid.
Now, you can safely fund transfers up to £100,000 or €125,000 per transaction, straight from your bank app, with zero manual typing and zero guesswork.
Deleting the Risks of Big Manual Transfers
When you're moving life-changing amounts, standard bank transfers carry real friction points. Here’s how Express Deposits delete those risks entirely:
- No More "Lost in Transit" Delays: A single mistyped reference code can leave a large transfer floating in bank reconciliation limbo. Express Deposits pre-fill every reference and account code automatically for instant, flawless matching.
- 100% Protected Credentials: You never enter or share your banking logins with us. Plaid opens a direct, encrypted portal to your bank, letting you approve the payment using your phone’s FaceID or TouchID.
- Fat-Finger Immunity: By removing manual copy-pasting of IBANs, you are completely protected from accidental typing errors.
