Metro Foreign Exchange
International transfers built into your credit union, with live rates, local payment rails, and USD payouts straight to your US bank account.
What This Platform Does
Metro Foreign Exchange lets Metro Credit Union members move money across borders without wire fees, branch visits, or third-party apps. Whether it is tuition, rent, or supporting family back home, you send from a local bank account and the money arrives as USD in your US account.
Live Rates, Locked Quotes
Rates update live as you type. When you are ready, we lock your quote so the amount you see is the amount that settles: no surprises between starting a transfer and finishing it.
Local Rails, Not Wires
Transfers ride each country's instant payment network: Pix in Brazil and SPEI in Mexico, with Colombia, Argentina, Nigeria, and Kenya live on the network and more countries coming. That is what makes transfers fast and affordable compared to traditional international wires.
Security And Verification
Every member completes identity verification (photo ID plus selfie) before their first transfer, and every transfer is authorized by you with a locked quote before any money moves. Metro Credit Union acts as your agent for the transfer, and funds are never handed to a third-party recipient you did not enter.
