Our foreign exchange (FX) schedules tell you everything you need to know to make your conversion on time. As long as you create your conversion before the given cutoff time, the conversions will settle on the same day. With regards to funding the conversion, you have 40 minutes beyond the cutoff time for Major currencies and 60 minutes for all other currencies.

When using the table below, the cutoff time of the currency with the higher rank applies. For example, if you want to buy Australian Dollars (AUD) with UK Sterling (GBP). Australian Dollars (AUD) has a cutoff time of 13:00, while UK Sterling (GBP) has a cutoff time of 14:20. Since AUD has a higher rank in this table, the cutoff for converting on the same day will be 13:00. If you miss the cutoff time, the conversion will settle on the next business day.

Our trading time begins on Sunday 17:02 ET and closes Friday 17:00 ET*. In addition, we have a 90 second daily downtime from 17:00 ET.

** Indian Rupee (INR), Indonesian Rupiah, Malaysian Ringgit and Philippine Peso are restricted currencies. We supports these currencies as buy only currencies, to make payments directly in the country. You cannot fund these currencies directly. They can only be bought by converting another supported currency and sold back only in exceptional scenarios. Find out more in our FAQ. Cutoff times vary by the Sell currency. Check each payment guide for details.

*** Russian Ruble (RUB) – Please note that we are not currently supporting RUB transactions due to the conflict in UkraineWhen RUB is supported, it is as a sell only currency. You cannot convert any other currency into RUB for payments.

UK timezones
Our platform and APIs display FX and Payment cutoff times in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which is aligned to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). In our FX and Payment guides, cutoff times are displayed as ‘UK time’, making it easier to navigate the changing seasonal timezones and giving you an accurate, local time reflection on any given day. When the UK is in its winter season, the platform and the guides will display the same time as both will be tracking to GMT. When the UK is in its summer season and moves to BST (GMT+1), the times displayed on the platform and the guides will differ by one hour due to the platform continuing to reflect UTC/GMT. The times listed in the guides are an accurate reflection of the UK cutoff times, regardless of seasonal changes.

What are SWIFT/BIC codes, and what do they mean?
Swift codes are handled by the SWIFT organization, and in particular from a division called “SWIFT Standards”. SWIFT stands for “Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication” and is a member-owned cooperative that is used by the financial world to conduct business operations. These codes were initially referred to as “swift codes” but were later standardized as BIC which stands for “Business Identifier Codes”. Both terms are used today and mean exactly the same thing: a BIC code is a unique alphanumeric identification code, consisting of combinations of letters and numbers, which is used to uniquely identify an institution's branch among the members of the swift network.

Why do I need this code?
The swift code is usually required by web banking applications for money transfers between two different banks (that are members of the swift network). We are not only asked to provide the beneficiary’s bank account number (or IBAN account number) that we want to send money to, but we must also provide the exact BIC code of the branch of the beneficiary’s bank. This site aims to simplify the process of finding this code. Note: please read our disclaimer at the bottom of this page BEFORE using any of the information found on this site.

The downside of international transfers with you bank:
Banks use SWIFT for international transfers, but it's not the most efficient or cost-effective solution. When you receive or send a wire transfer internationally with your bank, you might get a bad exchange rate, and pay high hidden fees as a result. We recommend using HUBFX, to get a great rate and low, transparent fee every time. Learn more.

Understanding the code:
A swift code consists of 11 or 8 characters, which is the standard format standardized by ISO (International Organization for Standardization). Here is an example code: CHASUS33XXX. This swift code is for the head offices of “JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.” in the U.S.A. and can be broken down to four parts:

CHAS - US - 33 - XXX

- First four characters: These 4 characters (“CHAS” in our example) identify the bank (“JP Morgan Chase”). This 4-letter code is used to identify this particular financial institution’s branches and divisions all over the world.
- Fifth and sixth characters: These 2 characters identify the country in which the bank is located. “US” in this example means “UNITED STATES”.
- Seventh and eighth characters: These 2 characters represent a location code (“33” in this example).
- Last three characters: These 3 characters form the branch code. “XXX” is used to identify the HEAD OFFICE or the institution, but this particular branch code is optional, and if omitted, the 8-character remaining code (“CHASUS33” in our example) is assumed to refer to the head office (primary office) of the institution.
