What sets us apart

Service. Rates. Regulation.

Support in a Challenging Environment
Customer service first

Support in a Challenging Environment

Horizon Currency has customer service and support as its core offering. We deliver one-on-one service in a world where currency payments customers are increasingly pushed online and therefore lack the helping hand of experienced dealers and analysts. Optimal timing and considered strategy are as important as competitive exchange rates, and we aim to provide all three.

Top Rates

Horizon Currency's primary payment provider is Equals Money, part of FTSE-listed Equals Group PLC, which transacted £18.2BN in 2024. Horizon Currency taps into this volume and delivers highly competitive currency rates to our personal and business clients. This means that rates once only available to the biggest institutions are now available to you.

Regulated by the FCA
Regulatory transparency

Regulated by the FCA

Horizon Currency is a currency solutions provider that specialises in client onboarding and payment execution. We don't take custody of funds; that is done by our UK FCA-regulated liquidity providers. Client money is held in segregated client safeguarding accounts using our global Tier 1 banking partners. It means all client funds are held separately from any company money or assets in order to comply with regulations.
