How to set up recurring currency exchanges

Boost your efficiency and streamline your global transactions by setting up recurring currency exchanges with amnis! Here's how it works:

  1. Navigate to the "Automation" section in your amnis account, click on "New automation" and select "Recurring transactions". On top, you can choose which type of recurring transaction you'd like to set up. Select "Currency Conversion" to automate your currency exchange.

  2. In the first step, you need to define the conditions of your recurring currency exchange. This includes specifying the start date and how often you want the transaction to be repeated. For example, you can choose to have the currency exchange occur every week, or every month.

    Please note: the currency exchange will be executed on weekdays at 12 pm. If the execution date falls on a weekend or holiday, the transaction will be executed on the following workday.

  3. You can also choose to set an end date if you have a specific date in mind. If you want the recurring fx to continue indefinitely, you can keep the "Good till cancel" option active. This means that the currency exchange will continue until you decide to cancel it. You can cancel or reactivate a recurring currency exchange at any time (before the next occurrence).

  4. Next, choose the value dates. These are the dates on which the currency exchanges will be executed. You cannot set up recurring forward transactions with value date > 2 days.

  5. To buy or sell, specify the currency and the amount you want to trade. You only need to enter the amount in one currency, as the corresponding amount in the other currency will be calculated automatically.

    Tip: Assign a tag to your recurring currency exchange to automatically categorize all transactions belonging to this automation. This allows you to easily identify them and speed up reporting.

  6. Review your recurring currency exchange details and give your automation a name before scheduling it.

Upon successful execution of the currency exchange, the amount will be credited to the respective amnis currency account automatically.

Overview and fx details

An overview of all recurring fx automations can be found in the "Automations" tab. Click on a transaction to review all details and flexibly de- or reactivate the automation.

After a currency exchange has been executed as part of an automation, you will also be able to view the details in your regular "Currency Exchange" overview.
