The Process

How do you pay us?

You can instruct your bank to transfer money from your account to ours, or to make things even simpler,  you can pay by direct debit. If you want to use direct debit, please download the form here. Then once everything’s set up, you won’t need to lift a finger. 

You can make your payment into any of our dedicated client bank accounts in the UK, Europe, America, Australia and New Zealand. 

How do we pay you? (or your beneficiary?)

World First is a member of SWIFT – the leading organization used throughout the financial world to conduct operations with speed, certainty and confidence. 

Once we’ve received your funds, we immediately pay the account(s) you’ve nominated.

We then send you confirmation in a PDF to let you know everything has gone through.

How long does it take?

It depends how you make payment to us. Typically, transactions can take up to three days to happen. Many happen on the same day. 

Any questions? Call us on 0800 783 5025 or +44 20 7801 9050 (from outside the UK). Or ask us to call you back. We’d be delighted to discuss your situation.
