FAQ
QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
How is Global FX Bridge different from my bank?+
Banks typically build a 2–3% margin into their exchange rate, often without disclosing it. We offer institutional-grade pricing through Mark Lane FX with full transparency, plus a named relationship manager rather than a call centre.
Is my money safe?+
Payments are processed through Tier-1 Canadian banking infrastructure (Bank of Montreal) and our partner Mark Lane FX is fully regulated. Client funds are held in segregated safeguarding accounts and never used for operating purposes.
What's the minimum payment volume?+
There is no formal minimum. We work with businesses sending anywhere from a few thousand dollars per month to several million. Savings scale with volume.
Which currencies do you support?+
We support payments in 40+ currencies to 180+ countries, including all major and most exotic pairs.
How long does the free FX review take?+
Typically 15–20 minutes. You share recent payment confirmations, we benchmark them against current institutional rates, and you receive a written estimate of annual savings — no commitment.
How quickly are payments settled?+
Most payments settle same-day or next-business-day. Forward contracts and limit orders can be arranged for future-dated settlement.
Do you offer hedging or forward contracts?+
Yes. We offer spot, forward (up to 24 months), market orders and structured hedging programs to help you manage currency exposure and protect margins.
