Highly reccomend Convera if you are business who makes regular currency payments and who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy organisation to act on your behalf. Staff are highly skilled, receptive, and always act in your business's best interests. In my experience these are the best company with good competitive exchange rates.

Supplier Review: Convera

A good system to use for transferring payments to overseas suppliers. The technical support, when required, has been available quickly and solutions offered.
Customer support is always first class.

Convera keeps your money.

I sent an international wire transfer that was rejected by the receiving bank and the funds were sent back to Convera the next day. Convera did not notify me that the funds were sent back. I started an inquiry about my funds when I was notified by the receiving bank that my funds were sent back to Convera. Long story short, Convera had my money for almost a month and did not care to notify me that the wire was rejected. By the time they finally sent my money back to me, they helped themselves to several hundred dollars in exchange rate difference. They made money on my money for a month AND they kept over $1300 due to difference in exchange rate. Unreal. Do not use them.

Convera - My "go to" supplier.

I am unsure why others have issues with Convera. Through the years, pre- and now- Convera, I have had excellent service and professional, timely results with Convera. Reluctantly, on occasion, I have to use RBC's service which is adequate however I would only use that as a last resort. Any issues I have had have been quickly resolved with Convera and my main contact there (Rick) and I woudl not hesitate to recommend them. From straight transfers to futures/forwards they are my "go to" supplier. Very pleased with their staff and results.

Convera is your one stop shop for FX

The team at Convera are amazing. When we needed to execute several large FX transactions, Neil Stewart, Adam Anozy, and the rest of the team ensured that we received the best rate available and the execution was extremely smooth and hassle free. I would recommend Convera without any hesitation!

We have always had a great experience working with Convera. As a company that frequently handles currency transactions, the Convera team (in particular Steven – one of the FX dealers, who handles our account) are always friendly, professional, and ready to assist with any queries. We look forward to continue working with Convera as both of our businesses continue to grow.

Our experience with Convera since Western Union

We have been a Western Union customer for a number of years and have explored other platforms to take advantage of better rates.
However, since the acquisition of WU by Convera, our account manager Ms Claire Knowles has always kept us informed of upcoming rate activity and provided expert advice without any added pressure towards decision making. I think it is important to mention that Claire and Convera communicate at the rights times which we feel is a good balance.

The Convera Edge platform is user friendly and the support from Claire is always there when required, particularly when setting up new supplier bank details on occasions.

We are also very grateful for event invitations where we have met with the Convera team to discuss future business activities. These were very well organised and managed by Michelle Baker.

Very happy with Convera as a partner

5 Stars to our FX rep... DG is always available, very helpful and proactive with suggestions.

3 Stars for back-office setup timing/implementation. My expectations may be the problem, but delays are common.
