As you can see we try to keep our fees to a minimum even though our margins are very low. The only time we charge a fee is when we are passing on fees from other institutions (eg the credit card merchant fee).

Most of the banks in Australia will charge you a fee of 1% (plus up to $10) per currency to change your money. This means that if you have several currencies to change or have a larger amount you can be losing quite a bit of money in commissions. Some institutions will also charge you a delivery fee on top of their commission.

Our competitors often refuse to believe that we don't charge fees for the majority of our services and may try to convince you that we do. All we ask is that you ask us directly and we will tell you the truth about our low or non-existant fees.
