How to send money abroad from Australia

How to send money abroad from Australia

  1. Just tap in how much, and where to.
  2. Then make a local payment to Wise, whether it's with a bank transfer, Swift or your debit or credit card.
  3. And that's it.

Wise converts your money at the 'inter-bank' rate – the real rate – so you save big time (even versus the guys saying there's 'zero' commission). On Wise, there's no room for sneaky bank surcharges or creeping hidden charges.

How much does it cost to send money abroad?

Pay a small, flat fee and percentage

To send money in USD to CAD, you pay a small, flat fee of 7.38 USD + 0.33% of the amount that's converted (you'll always see the total cost upfront). See our transfer calculator.


Fee depends on your chosen transfer type

Some transfer types have different fees which are usually tiny.


No hidden fees

No big fees, hidden or otherwise. So it's cheaper than what you're used to.

Sometimes, different payment methods or routine checks may affect the transfer delivery time. We’ll always keep you updated, and you can track each step in your account.
