Excellent service. I made the request online. It was quick within about 30 hours the request was filled. My boys traveled to Peru in three days. No banks or other services I tried could get the money to us quickly enough so we tried Currency Exchange International and they came through for us. Great communication too!

Order foreign currency online and efficiently pick it up inside the Alderwood Mall near the food court. Exactly as promised and very efficient.

I called on the phone to see if they had the currency I needed. They told me that they did and when I showed up a half hour later they had set it all aside for me. Friendly service performed professionally!

Shout out to Hee Muon for her incredible customer service skills and genuinely helpful demeanor. I was in a bind right before a big international move and ordered currency at the last minute to two different locations including Alderwood. I submitted identical orders on the same day, but the two experiences were day and night thanks to her. Both locations warned me that the currency I wanted was in low stock and could be delayed due to a big wave of ESL teachers. However, the order arrived two days later at Alderwood. Hee Muon called me right away to let me know it was there and followed up again to find out when I would come for pick up. I never had any follow up call with the other location and when I eventually called in, I was told that order had ever been submitted even though it arrived six days later when I was already at the airport. Hee Muon knew I lived an hour away and was having difficult making the store hours. She offered to stay open a little later after closing so I could make it, which was a really kind offer that I luckily didn't have to take her up on, but I could tell she meant it from a genuine place. Thank you Hee Muon for being so great at your job! 도와 주셔서 감사합니다 ~

Questions & Answers

How does currency reservation work?

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022
Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

First, select your desired currency and a branch location for pick up. On the Cart page, enter how much of that currency you want to reserve (an indication rate will be used for your reference) or the USD equivalent. If you want to add another currency select “Add New Currency” and enter the amount for this as well. Once you have all of the currencies you’d like to reserve, select “Proceed to Checkout”. You will now enter your contact information and select “Reserve Currency”. You will see a confirmation of your order and a confirmation will be sent to your provided email address. CXI's representative will contact with you and confirm when the reserved order will be available for pick up. You will pay for the order when you pick up the reserved currency.

How long will the branch keep my currency reservation?

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022
Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

The branch will keep your currency on hand for 7 business days before putting it back into inventory. If you will not be able to pick it up within 7 business days, please call your local CXI branch.

What is the difference between an exchange rate for Home Delivery and an indication rate for Reservation?

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022
Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

Branch Pickup Reservations Our exchange rates are locked in every weekday at our branches around 8 AM EST. The rate you receive when you make the online reservation is the exchange rate (indication rate) of that day, so it is good for that day only. The exchange rate you pay will be that of the day when you actually pick up and pay for the currency. The indication rate gives you a good reference point as currency exchange rates typically move less than 3% day to day. Home Delivery Orders Our exchange rates are locked in every weekday online around 8 AM EST. Home Delivery Orders are paid for when you complete the online checkout at the exchange rate displayed. Home Delivery does not use indication rates.

What do I do with the foreign currency I bought at CXI when I get back from my trip?

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022
Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

If you are returning with foreign currency, CXI will be happy to exchange it back to USD at one of our 30+ retail branches. The rate will be the buyback exchange rate of the day you bring in the foreign currency. Don't forget it's also covered by our Best Rate Guarantee.

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

This guarantee means CXI's company-owned location will match or beat the exchange rate given by any local bank or airport for the same product and service on the same day and time of the exchange. If you find a better rate within the same city and on the same day as the CXI branch you plan to exchange with, notify the CXI branch. Our branch will confirm that the rate you present is for the same amount and currency as you plan to exchange with CXI. Once confirmed with the bank or airport, CXI will match or beat the given rate. This is only valid prior to an exchange and is not valid after an exchange has already been completed. Best Rate Guarantee cannot be applied to online purchases for Home Delivery Please note that the policies of affiliate-owned locations listed on our website may vary – please contact affiliate-owned locations at their listed phone number to confirm whether they offer this Best Rate Guarantee.

What is an exchange rate and how does it work?

Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022
Currency Exchange International | Aug 17, 2022

An exchange rate between two currencies is the price of a country's currency in relation to another currency (called a currency pair). An exchange rate thus has two components, the domestic currency and a foreign currency. Currencies can be quoted either directly (how much 1 domestic currency unit, for example: $1USD is X amount of Euros, is worth in the foreign currency) or indirectly (how much 1 foreign currency unit, for example: 1 Euro is X amount of USD, is worth in the domestic currency).

They will exchange coins and the only thing they ask is that you seperate them beforehand.
