Spot contracts for business
If you need to make an international payment straight away or with very little notice, a spot contract could provide the perfect solution.

Spot contracts explained
A spot contract is the simplest form of international payment. We’ll offer you a rate based on a live market rate (or “spot”) and you can choose whether or not to transact then and there.
With a spot contract you can make a payment very quickly. As soon as you’ve agreed to a rate and we’ve received cleared funds, we then take care of the rest.
