Why do talent agents need an FX partner?

Athletes and entertainers are often paid by teams, studios, sponsors and platforms in other countries and other currencies. The rate applied between the deal and the deposit can quietly take a share of a client's earnings. FinXtra helps agents and agencies handle contracts, endorsements and signing bonuses across currencies with transparent pricing, lock a rate when the payment date is known and receive funds in foreign currencies, with access to wholesale FX liquidity.

Who we help

Yes. We give you a full breakdown of costs, including any currency markup, before you commit.

Can my clients receive money in their own currency?

How can I fund a payment?

Options include bill payments, electronic funds transfers, bank wire transfers and pre-authorized direct debits. For security and regulatory compliance, cheques and cash are not accepted.
