Example:
A cross border employee wants to change CHF 6,000.- to euros which are then to be transferred to a euro account in his bank in France.
- exchange rate applied by b-Sharpe: 1.09660 (Interbank exchange rate +0.5%)
- Operating unit costs applied by b-Sharpe: none
- Transfer fee: none, as it is for a SEPA credit transfer to euros in a European country
- Other costs: none
For the same transaction, the exchange rate applied by a traditional bank would be, usually, the interbank exchange rate + 1.60%. The bank would also apply charges, which would vary according to the institution. In the end, on the exchange rate only, b-Sharpe allows you to get, for a transaction of CHF 6,000.-, a little over 60 euros compared to the same operation performed by a bank.

Know more about transfer charges
- b-Sharpe is designed to save you money on your foreign exchange transactions. However, b-Sharpe and its customers remain dependent on banks for payment transactions. In all transparency, b-Sharpe charges its customers using the same fee structure as that negotiated with its banks. The good news is that through b-Sharpe, our clients benefit from “corporate” type payment conditions. The other good news, is that the vast majority of transfers are free.
- b-Sharpe draws the attention of its customers to the fact that unless otherwise notified by them, we will credit the equivalent of their operations by transfer where the fee structure is standard, that is to say shared between the recipient and the originator. To summarise, we pay the fees requested by our bank for the transfer of funds and our customers pay the fees that their bank asks them for the transaction.
- b-Sharpe has no control over charges from other banks. We ask our customers to contact their bank for rates that are to be applied to them. Note that the vast majority of SEPA credit transfers are not subject to fees levied by banks within the European Union.
However we let our customers decide whether to cover the fee that allowing them to bear the full cost of the transaction (i.e. those of the issuing bank and those of the receiving bank). This option allows our customers to be sure that their beneficiaries will be credited with the precise amount sent. This option costs CHF 18 for payments in euro within the EU and CHF 25 for other payments.
Urgent payments
We provide for our customers an urgent payment method, to process an express transfer to the beneficiary. This option costs CHF 5.-.
b-Sharpe usually transfers funds within 24 hours. Transfer is immediate with the express payment.
However, we draw the attention of our customers to the fact that this option is not compatible with the SEPA standard and therefore the beneficiary’s bank will charge for this transfer if the “OUR” option is not selected.
Moreover, if b-Sharpe guarantees an immediate transfer of funds, the effective timeline for receipt of funds also depends on the bank’s processing the transferred funds.
