Moneycorp review 2026: rates, fees and alternatives

Our verdict

Moneycorp is one of the UK's most established currency brokers. Here's an independent assessment of their rates and service, and how alternatives compare.

For transfers under £1,000, the difference in rates may be modest. For transfers above £5,000 — such as property purchases, pension transfers, or regular business payments — the difference between using your bank and a specialist broker can easily reach hundreds or thousands of pounds.

All specialist brokers featured on FXRates.uk are FCA-authorised, hold client funds in segregated accounts, and are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) where applicable.

How to get the best deal

1. 1. Compare live rates — Always get quotes from multiple providers before transferring.
2. 2. Calculate total cost — Include transfer fees and the exchange rate spread, not just the headline rate.
3. 3. Set a rate alert — Monitor the market and transfer when the rate reaches your target.
4. 4. Consider forward contracts — For large or future-dated transfers, lock in today's rate.
