Troubleshooting

How to fix CurrencyFair not working

CurrencyFair is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach currencyfair.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Force stop CurrencyFair

    Close the app, then open it again. On iPhone, swipe up from the bottom and pause, then swipe the app card away. On Android, open Settings > Apps > CurrencyFair > Force stop, then tap Open. This clears a frozen screen or a login loop without changing your account.

  2. Switch your network

    Turn off Wi-Fi and try mobile data, or turn off mobile data and try Wi-Fi. On iOS, open Settings > Cellular and turn on the toggle for the app; on Android, open Settings > Apps > CurrencyFair > Mobile data & Wi-Fi and allow background data. If the app spins or times out on one connection, the other path may reach the servers.

  3. Clear CurrencyFair app cache

    On Android, open Settings > Apps > CurrencyFair > Storage & cache, then tap Clear cache. On iPhone, delete the app and reinstall it from the App Store, because iOS does not offer a separate cache clear for apps. Reinstalling keeps your transfers and verification status, since they sit on the service's servers.

  4. Contact CurrencyFair help centre

    Open the help centre and look for your exact symptom, such as a transfer stuck in pending or a verification check that will not clear. Send a message there. Include your account email, transfer reference, time, and device, because support can trace the issue faster with those details.

While CurrencyFair is down: what to use instead

  • Wise Use it for international transfers and currency exchange when you need a web or mobile alternative.
  • Western Union Choose it when the recipient needs a cash pickup option or a transfer through its website, app, or agent.
  • Revolut Try it for currency exchange and international transfers if you already have an account.
  • Your bank Use your bank's online transfer service when the payment can wait for its normal processing time.

About

What happens when CurrencyFair goes down

CurrencyFair is an online money transfer and currency exchange service used by people sending money abroad and small businesses paying overseas suppliers. An outage interrupts logins, rate quotes, recipient setup and transfer status, and a payment you started can stall; the status at the top only shows whether user problem reports are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours, and it does not ping or probe the service.

Web login and app sign-in fail first. You get bounced back to the sign-in screen or a generic error, and rate quotes hang while the exchange step refuses to load, which leaves a transfer stuck in draft. If you already submitted a transfer, its status can stop updating; recipient details and payment history may load slowly or not at all. Failures are often partial: one currency route or one region can break while the rest of the service still works.

Questions

CurrencyFair FAQ

Is CurrencyFair down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether user problem reports for CurrencyFair are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. To see if the problem sits on your side, try the app on mobile data and open the website in a private window. If other sites load and only this service fails, the trouble is more likely with the service rather than your connection.

Why is my CurrencyFair transfer stuck as pending?

A transfer can sit in pending while the service waits on your bank or a document review; the app shows the step that has not cleared. Open the transfer in the app and read the note on that step, then check your bank account for a hold or a failed debit. If the bank shows the money left and the transfer stays pending for longer than the app's stated window, contact support through the help centre with the transfer reference.

Why can't I add a new recipient in the CurrencyFair app?

The app can block a new recipient when the name or bank details do not match the account you are paying, or when your account still needs a verification step. Recheck the recipient name and IBAN against the statement, then save the recipient again; a mismatch often shows as a form error before the payment screen opens. If the form still refuses to save, send a screenshot to support through the help centre so they can see which field is failing.

Why does the CurrencyFair app log me out or fail to load my account?

The mobile app can log you out after a security check, and a poor connection can leave the account screen blank while the balance never loads. Try signing in again on mobile data, then on Wi-Fi. Check the app store for a pending update. If the login screen rejects your password on the website too, reset it there; if only the app fails, reinstall it and keep your registered email handy for support.

Why did my CurrencyFair payment fail when my bank says the money left?

A bank debit can clear on your side and still fail at the service because the name on the bank account does not match your profile, or because the payment needs another identity check. Look at the payment status in the app and any note attached to it before you send the money again, since a second payment can double the debit. Send support the bank statement line and the payment reference through the help centre so they can trace the failed leg.

How we track CurrencyFair

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for CurrencyFair, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for CurrencyFair, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. CurrencyFair doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
