Question 2

When can I get a debit card?

Accepted Answer

We're currently inviting groups of customers with borderless accounts in the EEA to order a debit card.

If you already have a borderless account and are based in the EEA, you should receive an invitation from us before long. If you don’t have a borderless account yet, you can get set up today to make sure you get an early invitation to receive a card.

If you have any issues just get in touch with customer support, we’re always happy to help.

Question 3

from EUR to GBP 0.5%

Question 5

How do you keep my money safe?

Accepted Answer

Wise is an authorised Electronic Money Institution independently regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK.

This means we're required by law to keep your money safe by storing it in a low-risk financial institution - in Europe this is in our UK account with Barclays, in the US this is in our US account with Wells Fargo.

These accounts are reserved for customer money, this means your money is kept in a separate account from the money we use to run the business.

In the unlikely event Wise ceased to exist, your money would be paid back from this account, ie from Barclays or Wells Fargo.

Millions of customers trust Wise with their money. We move over £1 billion every month, and we take the safety and security of your money seriously.
