CPP Solves Incremental Buying…Gives members Added Peace of Mind

eZforex “Currency Price Protection” program allows the member, for a small fee, to protect the exchange rate at time of

purchase for any left over currency the member needs to return.

CPP results in higher member transactions as member’s concern over currency loosing value is negated.

Allows members to fulfill their currency needs with one transaction avoiding repetitive overseas transactions with ATMs

or Credit Unions.

Savings to members and corporations are significant!
