Tried and trusted for over 25 years
First Rate started supplying foreign exchange services (FX) to the Post Office in 1994.
Since then, we have grown to become a recognised expert in the FX industry, with a multi-billion pound wholesale business providing tailor-made travel money solutions for companies in the finance, travel and retail sectors.
We are the instigators behind a number of innovations, including 0% commission, which revolutionised the foreign exchange market and led the Post Office to become the UK’s largest retail outlet for foreign currency.
In 2002, First Rate became a joint venture between the Post Office and Bank of Ireland Group.
