*Pricing Disclaimer: please note, fixed 0.2% markups refers strictly to Spot FX conversions above £30,000 for clients trading on a monthly basis. Thresholds apply for payments below £30,000 and for one-off transactions. Limit Orders are priced at 0.35% above £30,000, Forward Contracts are priced at 0.5% from Currencycloud’s wholesale FX rate. 0% Forward Contracts refers to Deposit Free contacts, which are subject to credit checks on a case by case basis. The default deposit value for Forward Contracts is 5%. Please contact us if you have any questions.

*When we refer to choosing your FX rates, we mean that Glyde allows you to set a target exchange rate through a fully self-service, automated platform. Using a limit order, your currency transfer will be automatically executed if and when the live market rate matches your chosen target, with no manual intervention or broker involvement. Execution is not guaranteed, and there is a risk the market may not reach your selected rate. All orders are subject to market conditions and governed by our Best Execution Policy. Glyde applies no hidden spreads or broker markups, all rates and fees are transparently displayed before execution.

*"Save up to 60% vs. Revolut’s FX fees" is based on a comparison between Glyde’s fixed 0.20% FX markup and Revolut’s 0.60% FX fee applied to Basic Revolut Business accounts for currency conversions exceeding their monthly free allowance, executed during market hours (as published by Revolut on 20 June 2025).

This comparison applies only to Spot FX transactions. It excludes fees for card spend, out-of-hours conversions, Forward Contracts, or other premium Revolut plans.

Individual savings may vary depending on trade size, currency pair, market conditions, and customer eligibility.
