What it costs locally

OFX does not charge a monthly account fee on its standard service, and it makes most of its money on the exchange rate margin applied to conversions. Transfer fees can apply depending on the amount and corridor, and the available local bank details depend on the currency. There is no local Austrian account fee because it is a payments account rather than a local bank account. As of 23 March 2026. As of 23 March 2026

What local users report

Austrian businesses that pay overseas suppliers or invoice foreign clients commonly use OFX for larger transfers and to hold several currencies, then settle to a local euro account. Reviews tend to note competitive rates on larger transfers and the role of the exchange rate margin as the main cost to watch. As of 23 March 2026, confirm current rates and fees with the provider.
