Travel Money SwapShop with WeSwap's Jared Jesner

"I didn't really understand anything about business, so I just researched the concept and how money flowed around the world and thought this could be interesting.

I went home to my wife and said 'I think I really want to resign and create this money-swapping thing'. She said 'ok, I believe in you, let's do it'.

Then I told her we had to sell the house."

Jared was a currency trader who thought that there must be a cheaper way to get your travel money rather having to queue at a desk at an airport before jumping on a flight for your holiday.

So he created 'WeSwap' which works by getting users to swap money with each other. Since launching in 2015 he's had over 300,000 customers and swapped over £130 million in over 16 different currencies and over 18 different countries.
