What are you getting in touch about?

Three different things, three different routes. If you are just buying or selling cash, you do not need to contact us at all - come in.

Buying or selling cash

No appointment, no booking. Come in any weekday during opening hours and we will serve you at the counter. Call (02) 8014 4222 first if you want a large amount or a less common currency, so we can have the notes and the note sizes ready.

Check exchange rates

Wholesale and bulk orders

Bureaux de change, financial institutions and high-volume businesses deal with our wholesale desk, not the retail counter. Email contact@currencywise.com.au with the currencies, volumes, denominations and timing, and we will quote.

Feedback or a past transaction

Email contact@currencywise.com.au with the date and what happened. It comes to the same team that runs the counter, so you are not writing to a head office.

Can we sort it out over the phone?

Some of it, yes. The exchange itself has to happen at the counter.

Sorted on the phone

  • Whether we have your currency in stock today
  • Reserving a larger amount, or particular note sizes
  • Checking we are open around a public holiday
  • Wholesale enquiries

Only at the counter

  • The exchange itself - cash has to be counted, checked and handed over in person
  • Identification, because currency exchange is a regulated service in Australia
  • The rate, which moves through the day and is set at the moment you exchange
Only after a rate? The live board updates through the trading day, so it is faster than the phone.

We are on Level 2 at 60 York Street, Sydney NSW 2000

Between King and Market Street in the Sydney CBD. The map pin is the building - our counter is one floor up.

The pin marks the building at street level, so if you are standing on it and cannot see a currency exchange, you are in the right place. Go in through the ground-floor doors beside the shopfronts, take the lift to Level 2, and our door is Suite 202A. There are no stairs anywhere on that route. If you would rather see the whole walk photographed step by step, we have laid it out on Find us.

What people ring up and ask

Rates, reserving currency, opening hours, and who to talk to when something goes wrong.

We can tell you where a currency is sitting, but rates move during the trading day, so the rate that applies is the one at the moment you exchange. The live board on our exchange rates page is the fastest way to see where things are right now.

Yes. Call us with the currency, the amount and the note sizes you want. This matters most for larger amounts and less common currencies, where what is on the shelf changes from day to day.

No. We are open Monday to Friday, 9:30am to 5pm, and closed on Saturday, Sunday and NSW public holidays. If a holiday falls midweek it is worth calling to confirm before travelling in.

Email contact@currencywise.com.au with the currencies, volumes, denominations and timing you need, or call the desk during business hours. There is more detail on our wholesale page.

Email contact@currencywise.com.au with the date and what happened, or call and ask to speak to the manager. We are one store, so it goes straight to the people involved rather than into a queue.

Cash only. We do not take card payments at the counter at the moment, so bring Australian dollars in cash to buy. If you are selling foreign cash to us, we pay you in cash.

Yes. You can register online and request your exchange before you come in, and you get a ticket to show at the counter, so there are no forms to fill in when you arrive. It takes a minute or two. Get your ticket

Above A$4,000, you get a special rate

It applies to any exchange over A$4,000. The rate is quoted at the counter on the day, on the amount you bring. Call before you come in and we will have the currency and the note sizes ready, or come straight up to Level 2 and ask.
