There are many hosts here who operate in one currency (ie: USD), but the owner lives in another country (ie: CAD or EUR).
When transferring money into a different currency, but service do you use?
I typically use www.xetrade.com and have found them pretty good. However, it's been a few years since I evaluated the foreign exchange transfer market... so I'm wondering if there is anything better available.
Who do you use?

Thanks, but that does not help for non-European exchanges.
I'm looking for recommendations/reviews of online foreign exchange transaction services.
Like www.xetrade.com...

It works out best when you have account in a bank which has branches in both countries. Transfer/currency conversion just takes few hrs to credit from one branch to another.

It sounds great, but is it really free? Where is their income from? Transaction fees? If I just want to show the price in different currency for real time, what kind of service should I use?

This thread topic is about what online service to use for foreign exchange transactions.
Thanks.

I use e-forexgold.com for this. This is an e-currency exchange company, but they also provide currency conversion services inside TransXpress section on their website. I fund my TransXpress account with USD. When I need to send EURO or AUD, I convert my funds in the account from USD to EURO or AUD, and order a wire transfer to be sent.
