What should I consider before I open a foreign currency account at EverBank?
We feel it's important to assess your tolerance for the risks associated with currency fluctuations. While FDIC insurance will protect you from bank failure up to $100,000, currency values can be affected by various geopolitical and economic influences and this can negatively and positively impact the amount of your deposit. We recommend that you carefully consider both the potential for currency appreciation (or loss) along with the rate of interest that you may earn when assessing the use of foreign currency products as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.
We encourage you to use our
foreign currency resources to educate yourself about currency investing and the factors that influence currency values.
What can you tell me about any risks associated with WorldCurrency accounts?
While FDIC insurance will protect you from bank failure up to $100,000, it's important to understand that your deposit will be susceptible to losses or gains due to currency-price fluctuations. Various geopolitical and economic influences can affect a currency's value. We recommend that you carefully consider both the potential for currency appreciation (or loss) along with the rate of interest that you may earn when assessing the use of foreign currency products as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.

I'm interested in opening a WorldCurrency Access Deposit Account, what is my next step?
Please note: Not all investments are right for all investors. You should conduct your own research and/or consult with an investment advisor before making any investment.
- Before opening a WorldCurrency account, we recommend reading what to expect when opening a currency account.
- Once you select the currency offering that's right for you, apply online or call 800.926.4922 for more information.
- For your protection, we require that you sign and mail your application along with a deposit.
- The currency conversion rate will be within 1% of the wholesale spot price EverBank pays for the currency. Exceptions may occur when a specific conversion rate is agreed upon between you and EverBank. Please note, if you request funds in your account to be denominated in a currency other than the currency sent to EverBank to fund your account, EverBank will convert the funds using the then prevailing currency conversion rate offered by EverBank.
- Because this is a money market account, you are limited by Federal regulation to six transfers or withdrawals per month. See Terms and Conditions for details. Withdrawals or transfers in excess of these limits are subject to a fee.
- Your EverBank deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC for at least $100,000. FDIC insurance covers against loss due to the failure of the institution, but not market related fluctuations, including changes in currency prices. The amount of deposit insurance available for funds denominated in foreign currency will be determined and paid in the United States dollar equivalent of the foreign currency on the institution's date of default. As with all investments, investors can lose money, including principal due to currency fluctuations, over the term that you own it. Please only invest with money that you can afford to risk, and as part of a broadly diversified investment strategy.
