Our take
Established in 1993, Xe was one of the earliest players in the international money transfer market. Fast forward a few decades, and it's still going strong as a cross-currency information exchange.
It sells itself mostly on the fact that it covers a large swathe of the world’s currencies - you can transfer money through 65 different currencies to more than 170 countries. It also provides real-time exchange rate information and allows customers to transfer money into cash for pickup from a physical location (a bank or post office, etc.).
Xe's technology is integrated into big-name payment softwares like Shopify and Xero; but its high transfer fees set it behind newer payment softwares with crypto trading capacities. Its an established legacy player and its not going anywhere, but it certainly doesn’t feel at the cutting edge of its market.
