Santander’s low-cost cross-border remittance service PagoFX has opened up its international payment service for business purposes in the UK.

This service is now available to as many as 3.5 million sole traders in the UK.

PagoFX is now available on any device through PagoFX.com. Users can sign up and initiate fund transfers after a quick verification process. It already has a mobile app.

PagoFx has added eight new currencies from the Middle East, and Central and Eastern Europe including Israel, Turkey, Romania and Croatia.

Extending the no-fee programme, the company will continue to waive all fees on cross-border transactions until 16 August 2020.

Sole traders can register almost instantly and send money abroad with real-time exchange rates of the currencies.
