Accessing Your SWIFT GBP Account Details

Admin users need to activate the GBP Account first before using it to receive transfers.

After activation, Admin and Finance users can share the GBP SWIFT account details with the sender by following the steps below:

  1. On your Aspire dashboard, click "Funds" in the left navigation bar (web app) or click "Menu" and choose "Funds" (mobile app).

  2. Select your GBP Account

  3. Click on "View account details"

  4. Select "SWIFT Details"

Notes:

  • Russian Ruble (RUB) is currently unavailable.​

  • Restricted currencies, including INR, IDR, MYR, and PHP, cannot be received from overseas. Please ask the sender to convert to GBP before initiating the transfer to your account.​

  • We are not able to receive ELECTRONICS FUNDS TRANSFER (EFT) & crypto-related transfers.​

  • Please note that all transfers go through compliance checks by our team or partners, which might cause delays in receiving the funds. Our team might email Admin and Finance users for additional details or documents needed to process your transfer. While we strive to complete these reviews quickly, we can't provide an exact timeline for when you will receive the funds, as weekends, public holidays, and banking hours might also affect the timing. We appreciate your understanding and patience regarding any potential delays.

Intermediary Bank Details

A sender typically has the option to input an intermediary bank when doing a SWIFT transfer to your SWIFT SGD Account. Placing the intermediary bank ensures a seamless transfer to your Aspire account, minimizing the chances of missing transfers or even transfer reversals.

As such, we recommend sharing the intermediary bank details with the sender when applicable. The sender should have the option to enter intermediary bank details at the time of transfer initiation.

If the sender cannot select an intermediary bank, no action is required, as the sender's bank may have it configured on the back end. Toggle the button below to select the appropriate intermediary bank based on the currency listed:

Do I have the same SWIFT Account Details for my Aspire GBP Account if I already have an Aspire USD or EUR Account?

Yes. If you're receiving a transfer from any of our supported currencies, you would need to set up your primary currency. This way, your FX transfer will be converted to your chosen primary currency and added to that account.

You may view some example scenarios below for clarity:

  • Your chosen primary currency is your GBP Account. When your sender sends 100 AUD to your SWIFT account details, the 100 AUD will be converted to GBP and deposited to your Aspire GBP Account. When someone sends 100 USD to your SWIFT account, it will be deposited into your USD Account without conversion.

  • Your chosen primary currency is your USD Account. When your sender sends 100 AUD to your SWIFT account details, the 100 AUD will be converted to USD and deposited to your Aspire USD Account. When someone sends 100 GBP to your SWIFT account, it will be deposited into your GBP Account without conversion.

Note: Regardless of the primary currency set, any transfers received in USD, EUR, or GBP will be deposited in the respective currency account and will not be converted to the primary currency. This applies if you have activated a USD, EUR, or GBP Aspire account.

How do I set my account's Primary Currency?

To set up the account's primary currency, Admin users must:

  1. Click on GBP Account under the Accounts section on the homepage​

  2. Select "SWIFT account details" ​

  3. A pane will slide from the side. On the upper part of the pane, hit "click here" to update your primary currency

  4. A new window will pop up. Select your choice for the primary currency, whether USD, EUR, or GBP. Next, click "Update primary receiving currency"
