What We Do

Everyone at OANDA is focused on our vision to transform how our customers can meet all their currency needs. From our roots in 1996 that provided free currency exchange information to launching a multi-award winning global FX and CFD trading business to our recent new venture of money transfer. OANDA is now a major global player. Innovation has been at the heart of everything we do and our approach is to pioneer intuitive, user-friendly products supported by our great customer service ethos. We’ve come a long way since our first data feed went live in 1996, and we still have so much more that we want to achieve. Substantial funding has facilitated our exceptional growth. In 2007 we received $100M USD in Series B funding and in 2018 were acquired by CVC Capital Partners Asia Fund IV. For more information, please visit oanda.com. You can follow us on Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube. Leveraged trading is high risk and may not be suitable for everyone as your losses may exceed your investment.
