SWAP Direct is a matching platform that enables verified individuals to exchange currencies directly with one another.
Search for an offer or publish your own, find a verified counterparty and track every stage of the exchange in the app. In Direct Mode, the exchanged funds are transferred directly between users through the agreed payment methods. SWAP Direct does not receive, hold or transfer the exchanged funds.
The real market reference rate displayed when the offer is created is applied and locked. It cannot be changed or negotiated. SWAP Direct adds no margin to the exchange rate. Each user pays a 0.5% VAT-inclusive service fee, clearly displayed before confirmation.
