Are there any changes to how I make a FX payment or transfer with OFX?
Previously, you’d book a deal and make payment to OFX’s account to facilitate the transfer to your recipient. Now, you’ll have access to an account in your company name, with a unique account number. This means you can make international and domestic payments directly from your account and enjoy more oversight of the payment status to your supplier or vendor.
If you’re making wire transfers, your account has unique SWIFT account details with its own IBAN number.
Tip: To ensure seamless FX and global payments, please update your online banking with these new account details as soon as you transition to the updated platform.
Do I need to include a reference # (deal ID or Client Reference Number) for my payments?
No, you won’t need to include a client reference number or deal ID anymore. We’ve set up a dedicated account in your company’s name with a unique account number. It functions like a transactional account, allowing you to make direct payments to support your international transfers to suppliers or vendors.
What happens to my deal confirmation email?
Your updated OFX Business Platform offers you even more control on how we notify you on your account activity. You’ll no longer receive automated emails for ‘Deal booked’ or ‘Payment Created’. You can choose when and how to receive our email notifications, including transaction confirmations. You have the option to receive email notifications every time a payment is made, on a daily basis, or not at all. Additionally, you’ll receive an email once the payment has landed in your recipient’s account.
You can make this selection in the Setup > User > Notify me about section after logging into your updated OFX Business account.
