Consistency of monthly transfers
From the Netherlands to Australia
Marco applies the same care to monthly transfers that he brings to complex engineering projects. With income in euros and family commitments in Australia, a consistent EUR to AUD plan became essential.
Bank Frustrations
Initially, Marco used his bank for international transfers. Like many, he found the process slow, expensive, and lacking transparency. The exchange rates were rarely competitive, and the fees added up quickly on regular monthly payments.
“After realizing how much I was losing on every transfer, I knew there had to be a better way to support my family and pay off my home.”
“
The platform was just so much easier and faster than dealing with my bank.
— MARCO DE VRIES, CIVIL ENGINEER
Consistency is Key
Marco settled into a routine of monthly transfers. Over 6 years, he moved his earnings consistently. The value was not just in the rates, but in the time saved and the peace of mind knowing exactly when his funds would arrive in his Australian account.

The €3,365 Difference
When Marco looked back at his transfer history, the numbers told a powerful story. By using a specialist provider instead of his bank, he had saved an estimated €3,365. For him, that meant over AUD$6,000 extra that went straight into his mortgage and savings, rather than being eaten by bank margins.
“I can track my mortgage payments from overseas with total confidence.”
