Foreign Currency Transaction Payments

Iarnrod Eireann-Irish Rail

Irish Rail require a foreign currency payment platform for the processing of its foreign currency payments to vendors/suppliers. The payment platform must be able to receive and process bulk file transaction data in multiple currencies on a weekly basis. You will be required to process the payments in the denominated currencies to our supplierโ€™s bank accounts in a single file process. The FXP payment platform must detail the Euro cost of each payment, together with transaction processing costs and provide systemised reports to support. Irish Rail will transfer the total Euro cost of each weekly FXP bulk file payment, including transaction processing costs/margin to the providerโ€™s bank account in advance of the payments being made to our suppliers. Irish Rail does not intend to open new currency bank accounts to support this process and will pay for the service in Euros and using our current banking partner and accounts.
