Funds safety

When buying or selling currency through the Britline International Payments Service, your funds are held either in pooled client trust bank accounts or are held at one of our partner's counterparty brokers as cash in transit or collateral to meet obligations relating to clients’ trades. Funds can be used to fulfil the contractual obligations of their clients but will never be anywhere other than:

  1. In the segregated client accounts.
  2. With their banking counterparties.
  3. In transit, i.e. being sent.
