What AGRFHUH1 means for a payment to Agribroker Kft.
The short code AGRFHUH1 and the full code AGRFHUH1XXX refer to the same bank: Agribroker Kft.. A SWIFT code tells the banks handling a payment exactly which bank should receive the money. It comes up mainly when dealing with transfers between countries and payments in foreign currencies.
This page is meant to help people who sends money to an account at Agribroker Kft. without mistakes. A SWIFT code identifies an institution, not a specific account.
Transfer times and tracking a payment to Agribroker Kft.
There is no single answer for every transfer: many land the same day or the next, others take several business days. Bank holidays in either country add a day or more to the journey. Compliance checks by one of the banks can also add a delay.
Many banks use SWIFT gpi, which lets them follow a payment from bank to bank. Every payment carries a unique transaction reference, the UETR. Save the payment confirmation until the recipient confirms – you will need it for any trace request.
A missing payment is traced from the sending side, using the payment confirmation. As a recipient, it helps to check your account to see a slightly lower amount because fees can reduce the amount.
What the XXX in AGRFHUH1XXX means
The layout of a BIC is always the same: four characters for the institution, two for the country and a two-character location code. Together, these eight characters form AGRFHUH1, the code most people search for.
Most payment forms accept either length. If yours requires eleven characters, use AGRFHUH1XXX, otherwise AGRFHUH1 is fine.
Type the code in one piece, in upper case and without spaces. Copying the code is safer than retyping it: a typo can point to another bank.
What to give a sender who pays you at Agribroker Kft.
A sender in another country will ask for a few details about your account. Share your name as the bank knows it, the IBAN or account number, SWIFT code AGRFHUH1XXX and your address, which some banks require.
It helps to add the bank name and Budapest as well, since some forms ask for it. A mistake in your account number can be more trouble than it looks.
An incoming payment will not always land for the full amount. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, and when currencies differ, an exchange rate margin comes on top. Agree with the sender who covers the fees, especially for larger amounts.
Euro transfers to Agribroker Kft.: is a BIC needed?
Within the SEPA zone, euro payments to Agribroker Kft. use the same rules and in most cases need only the IBAN. A field for the BIC is usually optional or missing for those payments.
A SWIFT code like AGRFHUH1 still matter for payments in other currencies, and for transfers from outside SEPA. If a payment form has a field for the BIC anyway, adding AGRFHUH1 is fine.
Instant euro transfers are widely supported across SEPA; check with Agribroker Kft. whether it applies to your account. Provided no currency is converted, the transfer is inexpensive; costs rise once a conversion is involved.
The Hungarian Forint and what conversion costs you
Most accounts at Agribroker Kft. are usually held in HUF, the national currency. When you pay another currency, the amount has to be converted somewhere along the way – by your bank, by Agribroker Kft. or by a bank in between. Every conversion eats into something.
Which bank converts the money makes a difference, because each party uses its own rate. Often it is cheaper to send HUF straight away via a transfer service that converts near the mid-market rate rather than letting the receiving bank convert.
The HUF rate fluctuates throughout the day, so the amount you see is usually only valid for a short time. With bigger transfers, even seemingly small difference in the rate adds up quickly.
Changed bank details? Be careful
Be alert if a contact unexpectedly wants you to pay into a different account. The fact that AGRFHUH1 exists is no guarantee that the account is genuine; criminals use the codes of real banks too.
Before paying, verify changed bank details through a phone call. Pressure or requests to keep it quiet are red flags; a genuine business can wait for you to check. When a payment has already gone to a fraudster, call your bank right away: the sooner they act, the better the chance of a recall.
People receiving money are targeted too: a classic trick is a buyer who pays too much followed by a request to refund the difference to another account. A payment confirmation from the sender proves nothing – check your own account.
Choosing between the 2 SWIFT codes of Agribroker Kft.
Our database contains 2 SWIFT/BIC codes for Agribroker Kft.. Besides the head office code AGRFHUH1XXX, you will find codes for branches, departments or specific services.
For most payments to a private or business account, the head office code AGRFHUH1XXX is the right choice. When you receive a branch code, stick to it rather than replacing it for the head office code.
When in doubt, ask the person you are paying for the exact BIC in their bank details. Branch codes can change over time, so a code from an old document is not always valid.
Is AGRFHUH1 still correct? How to check
The most reliable place for the correct BIC remains a document from the bank itself. Compare that code with AGRFHUH1 here and ask if anything does not match.
With a wrong code, the transfer may get stuck, be returned or cost extra. Remember the IBAN: a mistake there is harder to undo than a wrong BIC.
Most online banking apps check the structure of IBANs and some suggest the matching BIC. Where available, a payee name check on the recipient adds an extra layer of safety. When you pay someone new, some people send a small test amount and wait for confirmation.
Where our SWIFT data comes from
The codes here come from public sources that we update regularly. Institutions merge, change names and retire codes, and a directory never catches every change immediately. Counts and locations come from our own dataset and are not confirmed by Agribroker Kft..
For any payment that matters, always confirm the BIC with Agribroker Kft. or with the recipient. GoldexPay is not affiliated with Agribroker Kft.; we are a comparison site for money transfers. Spotted an error? Tell us through the contact page and we will look into it.
International transfers from Agribroker Kft.: the real cost
When you send money to another country through Agribroker Kft., the visible fee is rarely all of the cost. You pay the transfer fee, possibly charges from correspondent banks along the way and, above all, the exchange rate markup if the currency changes.
That exchange rate margin tends to be the biggest item even though it is not listed as a fee. A simple test: put the bank’s rate against the mid-market rate for the same moment and work out the difference on your amount.
Specialised transfer providers frequently use rates closer to the mid-market rate and lower fees. On GoldexPay we compare what recipients receive across providers, so you can pick the cheapest route. Using a transfer service does not require leaving Agribroker Kft. – you pay the provider from your own account.
