On time service
always delivered the goods
payments were made in a timely manner
delays were sorted out as quick as possible
best rates on the market for our company
ive been using worlds first for many years now with little hassle and excellent customer service
very good communication and good in following issues
after rejecting the payment during bank process , good following from world first helped me,quick response for this issue got me surprised . so recommendable platform that i will offer my friends
Avoid like the plague
unethical, deceitful and non transparent. steer clear of these cowboys. They are a law upon themselves. Will hold your funds with no explanation and then ignore you. Theres better cheaper options out there
Thanks WorldFirst - Outstanding Service.
I wanted to transfer money at the best rate possible so over the course of several days I was in regular phone contact with George Cole at WorldFirst. He was always patient and helpful, and greatly assisted me in figuring out what to do and ultimately I got my money sent over at a really good rate. I'm really grateful. Thanks George for the outstanding service!

Great speed and service
This was the second time I used WorldFirst and I couldn't be happier with their rates, customer service and speed in processing. Funds were received within 24 hours. Thanks George!
Trouble free. Great Service
I need to transfer a large amount to the USA for an off market share purchase. As a lawyer I am often skeptical when top service is promised. I had not used World First before but despite my reservations found the service provided by George Cole and his team impeccable. I will use them again and can certainly recommend them.
Professional company
They treat the customers so respectfully. They answer all questions by phone and email quickly. Without a doubt, they are the best and #1 in Australia. I really appreciate your excellent support.

Very Very good service
Excellent, very courteous and efficient service, will use again in the future!
My Account Manager/Trader George (Cole), was very knowledgeable and helpful with any (small) problem that occurred. These were entirely my fault (being a first time user of the service, but everything sorted out by George very quickly!
In short, simply a breeze!

Fantastic service and excellent, transparent rates
After comparing the rates of the leading FX transfer specialists, I finally settled on World First due to their transparent fees and excellent rates. Transferring our savings from the UK to NZ was an efficient process and the service throughout was excellent with constant contact from my assigned dealer Julian. Although I had my GBP funds on account with WorldFirst, I was surprised they were able to transfer NZD to my account the same day my order was executed. Fantastic service - fully recommend both Julian and WorldFirst to anyone looking to transfer funds.

These reviews all seem to be written by the same person - they are all so similar in wording and content and nearly all of them name a specific person, something doesn’t feel right here. What NZ and Australian credentials do you have for transferring money?
Interesting pick up - I was thinking the same thing when reading the reviews... all very similar! Did you end up using their service?

About World First
World First has two main account options, an International Payments Account and an International Collections Account. The International Payments Account is for businesses importing goods and paying overseas suppliers, with the Collections Account is for those businesses selling using websites and online marketplaces.
Payments on transfers of $10, 000 or more are fee free, while payments between $2, 000 and $9, 999 will incur a $10 fee, and payments of $2, 000 or under attract a $20 fee.
Products and services
Products and services include spot contracts, forward contracts, firm orders and Xero integration.
- Spot contracts are the simplest type of fast, secure transfer. World First will offer you a rate based on a live market rate. If you’re happy with this, you transfer your money to them, and they will send an onward payment. This payment may arrive on the same day, or on the next day.
- Forward contracts let you lock in an exchange rate for a set period of time (for a maximum of 24 months), for payments of identifiable goods and services.
- Firm orders let you authorise the company to carry out a transaction on your behalf when the exchange rate reaches the rate you’ve chosen, that you’re happy with.
- Xero integration allows you to connect your International Collections Account to reconcile transactions and allow for better, seamless bookkeeping.
