Wise had made having a student abroad so much more manageable.

Melissa

I’ve been able to secure housing, pay insurance etc with very low fees. My student has a Wise debit card so I can easily transfer funds to her in her country’s currency for expenses or any currency for that matter if she is traveling. Highly recommend Wise.

I needed a way to send funds for tuition while my daughter was attending university abroad.

Rayne

After trying to do this through my bank and investment advisor, I discovered Wise. Wise by far was the fastest and most convenient way to accomplish this, usually only taking a few minutes to complete the transaction.
