Order Types
Trade at the current rate or wait for a rate at which you want your personal money transfer to happen.
When instructing us you will need to give one of the following order types:
With all order types, the order amount, the currencies being bought and sold, and the prevailing market conditions, all have an influence over our ability to complete transactions.
At Market Order
A request from you to trade at the current market exchange rate.
Requesting an at market order rate from us does not constitute a transaction between us.
Only if you agree to trade at the quoted exchange rate is a transaction in place.
At market orders can be requested for amounts equal to or greater than NZD 5,000, or the foreign currency equivalent.
Limit Order
An instruction by you to transact at an exchange rate not currently available.
For example, if you wanted to sell CAD and buy CAD at CAD 0.80, but the current exchange rate was CAD 0.78, you can place a limit order with us to sell CAD and buy CAD when the exchange rate of CAD 0.80 is available.
We will then watch your order 24 hours a day until completed or cancelled by you. Limit orders can be placed for amounts equal to or greater than NZD 5,000, or the foreign currency equivalent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to some of the frequently asked questions.
The global foreign exchange market has an average daily turnover of 3 to 4 trillion. This means that it is so big that no one participant (except central banks) can influence or continually predict market moves.
However, we are in a very unique position, in that we are in constant contact with and transact directly for, the bank currency traders in our region.
This means we can provide our personal clients with:
- The most up to date insight into what may be driving currency moves
- An ability to directly access the views of bank currency traders
- A lot more than just the financial savings our exceptional exchange rates provide
We will give you general product advice, in plain English.
We will explain the choices, benefits and risks of foreign exchange products.
We can discuss recent and historical levels of the currencies you are exposed to.
We can give you an overview of the current market consensus.
We will never, however, claim to know where currencies will trade in the future, or that we can achieve the best possible execution level for you.
No one can promise this.
Ultimately every client must make their own transaction decisions based on their specific currency requirements and situation. We believe access to our advice allows our personal clients to:
- Make their own informed decisions
- Gain a level of insight they would not get from their bank
- Receive value from our service that is in addition to receiving an exceptional exchange rate
Be very wary of anyone or any company, who claim to provide more.
