A new service is making travel even more convenient in the heart of Budapest: the Interchange Group has launched its self-service currency exchange network, the XTM. The first machine debuted on Vörösmarty Square, followed shortly by another unit installed in Városháza Park at the Budapest Card Center, in cooperation with BKK. Currency Exchange, Reinvented: Faster, Simpler, Anytime The concept of XTM in one sentence: exchanging foreign cash into forints is now about as simple as using a ticket machine. No queues, no rush — the machine can instantly exchange up to 20 currencies, 24 hours a day. And if someone gets stuck? One button is all it takes: the 24/7 customer support team immediately joins the session and assists. This feature is especially appreciated by international travelers who like to stay independent, yet still feel secure. Safety and Transparency The machines display real-time exchange rates, and each transaction ends with a digital receipt. XTM fully complies with all financial and data-protection regulations, offering a completely regulated alternative to traditional exchange offices. Two Locations Already Live — And This Is Just the Beginning Vörösmarty Square 2 – the first XTM, right inside the Interchange store Városháza Park – Budapest Card Center – installed in cooperation with BKK, accessible 24/7 And one thing is certain: more locations are coming soon. The Media and Tourists Love It Both international travel blogs and Hungarian news portals wrote enthusiastically about the launch. The most common descriptions: fast, convenient, forward-looking. According to foreign visitors, the Városháza Park machine is “strategically located” and “ideal for travellers who need cash instantly.” A Small Machine With a Big Urban Impact XTM represents the meeting point of digital innovation and everyday practicality: modern yet simple — exactly what a city with millions of annual visitors needs. Currency exchange is no longer tied to opening hours or staffed locations: Budapest now offers a fully self-service, around-the-clock way to exchange cash. 1/3 ×
