How do I transfer funds with NZForex?Dealing with us is simple. You register on the website and then log in. When logged in you can get quotes, add beneficiary details and book deals/funds transfers. After you register, an NZForex representative will call you to discuss your transfer(s) and make sure the system is set up correctly for your needs. You will also be able to ask any questions you may have about the service and process at this time. You can lock in rates prior to us having your funds for currencies if we can receive funds overnight or you leave a small deposit. If it will take longer for funds to reach us, it is better to send the funds to us prior to booking the exchange rate. Once we have the funds, you will be advised and can then lock in the exchange rate. Please note we do not support transfers in Indian Rupees, Indonesian Rupiah, Phillipine Peso, Thai Baht, Pakastini Rupee, Iraqi Dinar (and a number of other currencies) at this stage.
