OFX targets people moving larger sums, such as property payments, savings and recurring tuition, rather than small remittances. Its US personal page shows an example $10,000 USD transfer with an OFX fee of $0.00, which means the cost sits entirely in the customer rate. That makes comparison simple but important: check the rate OFX quotes against the mid-market rate on the same day to see the real margin. New customers get an introductory rate on their first personal FX transfer booked online, and high-value customers can register for a customized rate. Coverage spans 50+ currencies and more than 180 countries, and support is available 24/7 by phone or email, which matters when a large payment needs a human check. OFX notes that a third-party bank may take a fee it does not receive. It is regulated in the US by FinCEN and state regulators.
