Sharp mind. Sharper instincts.
Always your wingman.
The cost of not knowing
Your exchange rate might be costing you more than you think.
When your business makes international payments, even small differences in exchange rates can add up.
And the rate you see isn't always the whole story.
Exchange-rate margins, transaction fees and the way your provider prices currency can all affect what your business ultimately pays.
The challenge? It's not always easy to know whether you're getting a competitive deal.
You might have worked with the same bank or FX provider for years. Your payments go through, everything works, and there's no obvious reason to question it.
But when was the last time somebody took an independent look?
That's where FX Wingman comes in.
We help you understand what you're paying, whether your current arrangements are competitive and what alternatives might be worth considering.
Sometimes there are meaningful savings to uncover.
Sometimes you're already getting a great deal.
Either way, you'll know where you stand.
And with our free online FX review, finding out couldn't be more straightforward.
A clearer picture. Better decisions.
Independent FX insight. On your side.
FX Wingman provides free, independent FX cost reviews for businesses making international payments.
We look beyond the headline exchange rate to help you understand the true cost of your currency transactions.
Our online platform guides you through the review process, helping you examine your existing arrangements, identify potential savings and understand whether alternative providers could offer better value.
Uncover the true cost
Understand the exchange-rate margins and fees affecting your international payments. Get a clearer picture of what you're actually paying.
Challenge the status quo
Just because an arrangement has worked for years doesn't mean it's still the most competitive. We help you establish whether your current provider is delivering good value.
Explore better options
Where opportunities exist, we can introduce you to suitable FX providers offering potentially more competitive arrangements.
Stay in control
Review your findings, understand your options and decide what happens next. If your existing provider is already competitive, we'll tell you.
We're not here to make you change providers. We're here to help you make better decisions.
Your flight plan
Four simple steps to FX clarity.
No complicated process. No unnecessary disruption. No need to arrange a meeting just to get started.
Everything takes place through our online platform, from your first details to your personalised report.
Step 01: Tell us about your business
A few details. A clearer picture.
Start by telling us a little about your business and how you use foreign exchange.
We'll ask about the currencies you work with, how frequently you make international payments and the approximate amounts involved.
It's straightforward, guided and designed to help us understand your requirements.
Step 02: Upload your FX documents
Let the numbers do the talking.
Upload relevant documents such as recent currency transaction confirmations, exchange-rate statements or provider quotes.
These help us understand the exchange rates you've received, the fees you've paid and the overall cost of your currency transactions.
Step 03: Get your personalised report
Your FX costs, explained.
Receive your FX cost review report directly through our website.
Your report helps you understand:
- The exchange rates and charges identified in your documents.
- How your existing arrangements compare with available benchmarks or alternatives, where sufficient information is available.
- Whether there may be opportunities to reduce unnecessary FX costs.
- What the findings mean for your business.
- Potential next steps worth considering.
Clear findings. Straightforward explanations. No unnecessary jargon.
Step 04: You decide
Your business. Your decision.
Explore your report and decide whether you'd like to take things further.
If we identify a suitable alternative, you can choose to be introduced to an FX provider.
If your current arrangements are already competitive, that's good news too.
There's no pressure to change.
And your review doesn't disappear when you're finished.
You can return to My Hangar whenever you want to revisit your findings, update your review or request an updated report.
Free to complete. No obligation to switch.

Wing Commander Felix “Shades” Foxworth
Callsign: Shades
Sharp mind. Sharper instincts. Always your wingman.
Meet Shades. The face of FX Wingman and your trusted companion on the mission towards better FX decisions.
Confident, sharp-witted and just a little mischievous, Shades knows that sometimes the smartest move isn't flying faster. It's taking a better route.
He's got an eye for the details others might miss, a healthy habit of questioning the obvious and an unwavering commitment to being on your side.
Behind the aviators and fighter-pilot swagger is one simple philosophy:
You deserve to know whether you're getting a good deal.
Shades doesn't trade currencies, promise miracles or tell you what to do.
He's your wingman, helping you see the bigger picture, understand your options and make your next move with confidence.
And whether you're taking off on your first FX review or returning to the hangar for another look, Shades is ready for the mission.
Because when it comes to your business, you should never have to fly blind.
A wingman on your side.
Your business. Your decision.
If you're already getting a great rate, we'll tell you.
This is an important part of what makes FX Wingman different.
We're not looking for a reason to make you change providers.
We're looking for an answer to a simple question:
Could your business be getting a better FX deal?
If the answer is yes, we'll help you explore the possibilities.
If the answer is no, you'll have reassurance that your existing arrangements are competitive.
Either outcome is valuable.
Because an independent review isn't just about finding savings.
It's about knowing.
And because FX arrangements can change over time, you can return to your review whenever you want to take another look.
No unnecessary changes. No pressure. No obligation.
Just a clearer picture of your FX costs.
Good questions deserve straight answers
Everything you need to know.
Is an FX review really free?
Yes. Our FX cost review and introduction service is completely free to your business.
There are no review fees and no obligation to proceed with any recommendation or introduction.
Can I complete the entire review online?
Yes. The entire FX review takes place through our website.
You can provide your business details, upload your relevant documents and receive your personalised FX cost report online.
You don't need to arrange an initial meeting or telephone call to complete your review.
What documents do I need to upload?
Recent FX transaction confirmations, exchange-rate statements or provider quotes are useful starting points.
These documents help us assess the exchange rates and fees associated with your existing arrangements.
The online review will guide you through the information and documents required.
What will my FX review report tell me?
Your personalised report will help explain the FX costs identified in your documents, assess how competitive your existing arrangements appear and highlight potential opportunities for improvement.
Where there is sufficient information, it may identify areas where alternative providers could offer better value.
The goal is to give you a clear, understandable picture of your FX costs.
What is My Hangar?
My Hangar is your personal space within FX Wingman.
It's where you can return to your FX reviews, access reports, update information and start new reviews without beginning the entire process again.
What is Mission Control?
Mission Control is the main dashboard inside My Hangar.
It gives you an overview of your reviews, their progress and the actions available to you.
From here, you can continue existing reviews, start new ones, upload additional information and access your findings.
What is My Logbook?
My Logbook is where you can revisit your completed FX reviews and reports.
It helps you keep track of previous assessments, review historical findings and compare them with updated reports.
Can I update my FX review later?
Yes.
Your FX requirements may change over time, and your review can change with them.
Return to My Hangar, update the relevant information, upload more recent documents and request updated findings.
This helps you keep your understanding of your FX costs relevant as your business evolves.
Will I have to change my FX provider?
Absolutely not.
You remain in complete control.
If your existing arrangements are competitive, we'll tell you. If we identify a potentially better option, it's entirely your decision whether to explore it.
What if I'm already getting competitive exchange rates?
Then that's good news.
Our job is to help you understand where you stand, not persuade you to change something that already works well.
If your current arrangements are competitive, we'll say so.
Do you actually exchange currencies?
No. FX Wingman is an introducer, not an FX provider.
We help businesses understand their currency costs and, where appropriate, introduce them to suitable providers.
Any currency exchange services or transactions are arranged directly between you and your chosen provider.
How much could my business save?
That depends on your current provider, transaction volumes, currencies and existing exchange rates.
Some businesses may find meaningful opportunities to reduce costs. Others may discover they're already receiving competitive rates.
We don't promise savings before we've examined the numbers.
Do I need to speak to somebody?
Not to complete your FX review.
You can work through the entire process online, from providing your initial information to accessing your report.
If you'd like to explore a potential alternative, we can help you take the next step.
Is there any pressure to proceed?
None.
An FX review doesn't commit you to changing provider, opening an FX facility or making a transaction.
We provide the information. You make the decision.
Is FX Wingman suitable for smaller businesses?
Yes. If your business makes international payments, understanding your FX costs is worthwhile.
Whether better arrangements are available will depend on your particular requirements and transaction volumes.
Ready for a clearer picture?
Your next better FX decision starts right here.
You don't need to be unhappy with your current provider to ask whether you're getting a competitive deal.
Maybe there's an opportunity to save.
Maybe your existing arrangements are already excellent.
There's only one way to find out.
