International payments
Getting started
Volopa charges a payment processing fee for international payments. These fees will vary depending on your preferred settlement method.
Using our online platform to make an international payment is quick and easy. All your payment and recipient details are stored to make your repeat payments more convenient, including preferred settlement methods and payment references.
Payment timelines mostly differ based on where your recipient is based, when you make the payment and on your preferred settlement method. Our full payment timelines are available on our online platform and you are always informed of the estimated payment delivery date before confirming your payment.
With Volopa’s international payments solution, you can make payments in 36 currencies from the UK and in 26 currencies from any EEA country. You can also fund those payments in more than 10 currencies, including GBP, EUR and USD.
Simply enter your recipient’s email address (you can also add a cc email address) in the designated field in your new payment screen. Once the payment is sent to your recipient’s bank, we will notify the recipient that the payment has been sent.
Your recipient will receive the automated email from us once the payment is sent. You don’t have to provide evidence of payment to your suppliers.
We charge a competitive commission on FX conversions that varies depending on volumes.
