We’d like to introduce OFX, the new name for UKForex. What began as a start up in a garage near Sydney’s Northern Beaches has become one of the world’s leading global money transfer providers. But this re-brand isn’t about us. It’s about you. 

At the core of everything we do is a focus on assisting our extraordinary customers to lead extraordinary lives. So whether it’s paying for international school fees or branching out into global business markets, OFX is here to help you achieve your most important and life-changing pursuits.

That’s why we’re rolling out a new brand and a new website, so we can serve you better. It’s that simple. 

So what else is changing around here? Well, we’re keeping our exceptional customer service and the best-in-class payments platform that we’ve developed over the past 17 years. But now, we’re doubling down on our efforts to be customer-centric by providing new informational resources, new products and new initiatives that will continue to facilitate your international lifestyles. Whenever you need us, OFX is here to help 24/7.

There are a few things to keep in mind:

  1. Your existing transfers are not affected by this change.
  2. You can call us anytime, if you have any questions or concerns about your account.
  3. All future contact from us will be under the OFX brand – whether by email, on the phone, or on our website. 
  4. Many things will remain the same: our service, our banking details, our exchange rates and (of course) our team’s commitment to delivering the very best in foreign exchange services.

Here’s to a fantastic future!

OFX is part of The OzForex Group, a global provider of online international payment services for consumer and business clients. OzForex Group technology also powers international money transfer services Moneygram, ING Direct, Macquarie International Money Transfers and other international financial institutions. Established in 1998 with the aim of providing clients with a better deal, it has offices in Sydney, Toronto, San Francisco, London, Hong Kong, and Auckland.
