Guide to batch payments

Batch payments let you create and send multiple payments in one go. You need to upload one of our 3 batch templates and make a single pay-in to Wise to cover all payments in the batch. 

Batch is the perfect solution for businesses that need to make a large number of payouts to their customers, freelancers, employees, investors or suppliers around the world. You can create up to 1,000 payments with a single .CSV or .XLSX file. 

Currently, you can only set up a batch payment on the website. We suggest using Google Chrome.

How do I make a batch payment?

You’ll need to set up and verify a Wise Business account first.

Learn how to get your business verified.

Which batch templates are available?

We have 3 different file templates. You can send money to saved or new recipients if you know their bank account details. If not, you can send money using only their email address.

Read more about batch templates and how to fill in our batch templates.

Once your Wise Business account has been verified, you can set up a batch by following these steps:

  1. From Home, click Send money and then Batch Payments

  2. Select and download a batch payment template file

  3. Fill in your template file. Learn how to fill your batch template

  4. Save your file as a .CSV or .XLSX and upload it to the batch payments page

  5. Review the transfers and pay for your batch

Can I use third party platforms to create batch payments?

Yes — you can integrate your Wise business account with our open API. Our API helps businesses streamline their workflows. You can also connect your business tools to Wise and create other ways to manage your finances.

Can other team members make batch payments on my Wise Business account?

Yes. Business Owners, Admins and Payers can set up batch payments, unless there’s an approval rule on your business account. If the rule is set up, you’ll need to approve the batch payment before it can go through.

Preparers can also set up batches, but other eligible business members will need to approve them. If your team member has a Custom Role, you can edit their permissions to enable them to set up batches payments.

Read about assigning roles to your team.

Is there anything else I need to know?

You can’t send batch payments to your Wise Contacts (other Wise accounts without account details to receive money). You can only send these payments to recipients added to your Recipient list.

You can’t schedule batch payments yet. You also can’t send CNY, JPY and BRL with batch payments.
