Currency hedging allows you to secure a fixed exchange rate with your future supplier payments, so you know your margin.
Without this, the margins some travel companies work under can be unpredictable and any fluctuation in the foreign exchange rates can cause great impact on the overall profit margin.
PTS hosts multiple currency trust accounts so your consumer monies can be protected in the currency you choose. Plus, PTS work with currency providers to secure the lowest currency rates in the market.
By working closely with an FX provider, we at PTS can offer you the best rates on currency hedging while you can sell at a set cost all year round.
At PTS, we understand the importance of setting out a margin at the beginning of the year, so that you can sell with security in this fluctuating currency market.
PTS create excellent relationships with our members. You will get to know our team well and can call at any time to arrange for your monies to be moved.

Purple Dog Company entered the sports and adventure travel market in 2019. Our mission was to establish a travel business that offered bespoke sports holiday travel backed up with a compliant and transparent working platform that offers world-class sporting and adventure experiences for our customers, complete with a trusted platform of financial protection. Protected Trust Services supported our vision by offering merchant services, financial protection through its trust account, a software package to support all this, whilst guiding us through the critical ATOL certification application needed to ensure our offerings were in line with our legal obligations. What we didn’t expect was the support and assistance whenever we felt there was a complex scenario for booking. Always on hand to offer support, PTS have fast become our partner of choice.
We were very new to travel when we joined PTS. They provided unrivalled support but allowed us to build our supplier list without restriction. Throughout the COVID crisis the team at PTS have been on hand for any help and assistance. We are so pleased we joined PTS.
I first enquired about joining PTS at the back end of 2018, and it turns out it was the best decision we ever made.

They’ve been supportive throughout the pandemic, and they always make everything so seamless and straightforward.
The team offer such fantastic support and I can’t recommend them enough. I did a lot of research before joining and know it was the best decision I ever made in joining!
