International Currency Exchange \- often known simply as 'ICE' - was a global foreign currency exchange company, based in London.[1]

## Background

[edit]

ICE was the first foreign exchange operator to offer a pre-paid currency card[2] and also to offer a voucher system, whereby customers are able to get discounted exchange rates by visiting the company's website before picking up their currency.[3]

As one of the largest retail currency exchange operators in the world, with a combined annual group turnover in excess of US$1.8 billion, ICE operated a global network of over 300 bureaux de change branches, including 65 airports, across four continents.

ICE is a Private Limited Company owned by Lenlyn Group, and is a sister company of Raphaels Bank. The organisation's headquarters are in Piccadilly, London.

ICE UK ceased trading in 2022, going into administration as a result of the Covid restrictions; ICE retains operations in other locations including the USA and Ireland.
