MAINTAINING A HARD-EARNED HOME FROM HOME
After spending many winters skiing in Chamonix, France, Martha and her husband decided to buy property there.
“Initially, I was frustrated with the cost of wiring money to France. It took a long time, the exchange rate was poor, and the
transfer fees were large. There had to be something better available online – that’s how I found OFX.
OFX has excellent rates and you know exactly how much of your hard-earned money will arrive at your bank account.
Plus, the wire fees are more than fair – it’s a bargain.”

HOW TO BUILD THE PERFECT PROPERTY PORTFOLIO
At the age of 22, Chris started investing in property. At 27, he relocated to Australia, taking his property portfolio with him.
“I began pulling equity out of my UK properties, transferring the money to Australia. I was moving up to $100,000 at a time and
was comparing rates across banks when I looked at using OFX. The difference was considerable, and I haven’t looked back.”
Chris is now a regular host on Sky News Business, and also travels around Australia and Asia conducting seminars using
OFX to pay for venues and sponsorships.

HELPING A BUSINESS BOOM
James Johnson, Managing Director of energy efficiency company Shine On, has been importing energy efficiency
products from China since 2009.
“In 2011, we did an audit and realised that we were spending far too much money on money transfers. Our
first priority at the time was to find the best rates; an acquaintance recommended OFX.”
James signed up and made his company’s first invoice with OFX – making an estimated saving of over $1,000.
In the years since Shine On partnered with OFX, it has saved over $80,000 in international money transfers.
