Are iBanFirst services available for individuals too?
iBanFirst is specifically designed to meet the needs of SMEs. Therefore, it does not offer the same scope of services to individuals. However, in cases of significantly larger private transactions (eg real estate purchases), you can open a non-commercial account with iBanFirst. For any specific enquiries, feel free to contact us directly.
What fees can I expect to pay with iBanFirst? Are there any monthly costs?
At iBanFirst, we offer competitive and transparent foreign exchange rates and fees. Here's a complete overview of all our fees.
Unlike most corporate banks, iBanFirst does not charge any fees to open an account or any monthly subscription fees.
iBanFirst earns a spread on every currency conversion, calculated as the difference between the market rate and the client rate. This spread is transparent and shown on the web platform or communicated over the phone.
Are my funds secure?
As a regulated payment institution authorised by the National Bank of Belgium, we follow strict rules to safeguard your money. Our regulatory framework ensures that we maintain rigorous procedures to protect client funds, giving you confidence in the security of our services.
For instance, under the PSD2 directive, funds must be segregated from the payment institution's own funds and held in a separate bank account set aside solely for client money. In the unlikely event that iBanFirst encounters financial difficulties or becomes insolvent, your money will remain fully secure and protected in one of these accounts.
iBanFirst S.A. is duly authorised and regulated by the National Bank of Belgium (under company number 0849.872.824) as a payment institution. Our registered address is at Avenue Louise 489, 1050 Brussels, Belgium. The products and services that iBanFirst S.A. offers are limited to unregulated spot FX transactions and deliverable forward payment contracts (forward payment, flexible forward payment and dynamic forward payment) excluded from MiFID and EMIR regulation, as they are intended to cover an underlying future payment for identifiable goods and services. iBanFirst S.A. does not offer options or any other financial instruments for investment or speculative purposes.
