Foreign Exchange
Best prices,
personal service
A straightforward
approach
Safe and secure
trading
Using in-depth FX market intelligence, we are able to provide access to the very best foreign exchange rates.

By understanding your needs and timeframes we can produce a strategy that is most effective for you. Once operational we will only contact you when necessary, so you can get on with your day-to-day business.
Platinum Payment Services only offers one service which is foreign exchange. That means we can offer a clear, straight-forward and uncluttered service.

It allows us to concentrate on our core business of making the best possible foreign exchange trades for all our clients. That is the Platinum Payment Services difference.
Platinum Payment Services holds all client monies in segregated client accounts held with our banking provider, Barclays.

You can make your payment to us directly from your bank to our segregated client account at Barclays Bank.
What
we do
Simply providing great exchange rates is not the whole picture
Our service
In a volatile marketplace most clients will need some reliable market information. In foreign exchange,
market intelligence and understanding your timeframes are two key areas where we can provide
information which will ultimately dictate your strategy.

Our main aim is to establish long term loyal client relationships.
Spot currency rates for instant delivery (as soon as your sale currency arrives, your bought currency will be dispatched). We do not need to move money between brokers, as is often the case.

Forward currency rates with low margin deposits.
Why
use us?
Foreign Exchange is a significant marketplace
We don't employ banks of salesmen
Security
The 'retailers' or brokers are as numerous and diverse as any other market, so what do we offer that’s different?

It is a fact that there are many excellent brokers and as with most things in life, you will choose the one you like best or the one which is most convenient.
Instead of chasing new business, we would rather concentrate on our core competencies of saving our clients time and money. Equally we will not entertain business at any cost. We need to be sure that you are comfortable with our terms, procedures and security. We believe in developing long term relationships with our clients.
The best service and exchange rates are meaningless if client money is at risk, even if remotely, from corporate failure. Platinum Payment Services is able to offer clients one of the most secure environments in which to transact foreign currency payments through our banking provider Barclays.
 
Through Barclays, Platinum Payment Services will process your funds through our client segregated accounts.  
Your funds will be deposited and held within our segregated client accounts until your corresponding currency is transferred onwards, within the agreed timescale, into your nominated account.

Platinum Payment Services offers the most secure way to trade on the foreign exchange markets.
How to open an account
How to use your account
More than just an ordinary Foreign Exchange account, your Platinum Payment Services account is genuinely segregated and numbered. By ring-fencing your funds, your exposure to risk is kept to a minimum and your funds remain yours until the trade is done.
Registering with us is simple. Complete the online registration process or alternatively print and post the registration forms back to us.
 
As with all money transfer services, we are required to identify you and adhere to anti-money laundering procedures. This is why we ask for more than just a signed Terms of Business , although you should familiarise yourself with them before proceeding. Once registered you are under no obligation to trade until you accept a price from one of our dealers. All telephone lines are recorded for security and to avoid confusion.
Telephone: We offer our clients a personal telephone based dealing facility giving you direct access to one of our experienced dealing team or contact with one of our dedicated Operation team.

Online: We will shortly be offering you the ability to access your account online 24/7. You will be also be able to view your trading history/balance, set automatic target prices to buy / sell currency and make international payments.
