What is Easy Transfer?

Easy transfer is our Open Banking feature, with a maximum limit per transaction of £75,000. 

What is the difference between priority payment and regular payment?

Priority payments are processed through SWIFT rails. Priority payments tend to cost more but come with MT103 summaries of bank instructions and SWIFT GPI tracing of payments. Regular payments are processed through local payment rails, such as UK Faster Payments, US ACH, European SEPA etc. Such payments may cost less but do not come with tracing services
