What’s better than getting your hard-earned money across borders faster? Saving big while doing it! That’s exactly what our newest EasyFX update is all about.


We’ve re-engineered the way EasyFX works to make sure your funds get where they need to go, faster and cheaper. Previously, currency transfers could take up to 12 hours to settle in your offshore account, but not anymore. EasyFX now settles transfers every single hour.

But that’s not all, we’ve gone the extra mile to make sure you save more, too. Thanks to a fresh agreement with our banking partner, we’ve secured a 59% cost saving on exchange rates. And we’re not keeping those savings for ourselves; we’re passing them directly on to you. 

What is EasyFX?
If you’re new here, welcome to the world of EasyFX. It’s designed to seamlessly move your funds between:
  1. Rands (ZAR) and US Dollars (USD)
  2. Australian Dollars (AUD)
  3. British Pounds (GBP)
  4. Euros (EUR)
And the best part? It works both ways! Transferring back into ZAR is just as simple. No fuss, no drama, just smooth currency transfers whenever you need them.

EasyFX

How This Benefits You
Imagine spotting an exciting international investment opportunity, maybe it’s a promising tech stock in the US or an up-and-coming renewable energy company in Europe. Previously, the wait time for funds to settle might have cost you the perfect entry point. Now, with hourly settlements, EasyFX ensures you’re always ready to seize the moment.

Why We’re Excited (and You Should Be Too)
EasyFX is just one of the many ways we’re making investing more accessible, affordable, and easy. This upgrade is a reflection of our commitment to continuously improve the tools you need to succeed.

So, whether you’re diversifying your portfolio with US tech stocks, tapping into the Aussie markets, or exploring opportunities in Europe, EasyFX has your back — faster, cheaper, and smarter.
