WHAT DOES NO COMMISSION MEAN?
It means that we DO NOT CHARGE any additional fee to the exchange rates offered by our company. It DOES NOT mean that clients get the exchange rate found on Google, or websites such as www.xe.com. Both Google and XE have disclaimers on their webpages about the exchange rates.
Specifically, Google states: “Google cannot guarantee the accuracy of the exchange rates displayed. You should confirm current rates before making any transactions that could be affected by changes in the exchange rates.” source.
Similarly, XE informs users in the following manner: "The mid-market rate is the mid-point between the rate a currency can be bought or sold at. These rates are not available to customers - NOT EVEN XE CAN BUY CURRENCY AT THIS RATE.
These rates are real time and are updated every 60 seconds during trading hours.
Our free information services always list the mid-market rate because it indicates the value of a currency that’s not weighted towards buying or selling." source.
