I was going to the Citadel Mall, when at the corner of my eye, I saw a currency exchange. I thought that I should go because I’m a currency collector. I saw that they had a lot of currency, so I asked for some bills. When I asked to get a certain type of currency, her response was curt, disinterested, and not at all courteous. It was obvious that the person selling me was having a bad day. She provided me with very minimal assistance, and that she was disinterested. I’d say that the transition took 10 minutes, and they charged me an extra $7, but I am very happy that I got my currency. I’m giving it a 1 star rating, and that’s me being generous…poor customer service!!

Total fees and commission to exchange currency is 6.5%. Be sure to also include the exchange fee Currency Exchange International charges in addition to the commission they receive which is already embedded in the exchange rate.

Questions & Answers

How does currency reservation work?

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?

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?

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

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.

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.

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).

Does this place have euros and pounds on hand? I'm going to Europe and I need to change my us dollars
