4.2 One Wise Account per person or entity. Each person and each business may only open one Wise Account and maintain one profile. Each Wise Account holder is individually bound to the terms of this Agreement.

4.3 You must have authority to bind your business. If you are operating or using a Wise Account opened for a business, you confirm that you in fact have authority to bind the business on whose behalf you use our Services, and the business accepts the terms of this Agreement. We may ask you at any time to provide proof of such authority. If you do not provide proof of authority that is acceptable to us, we may close or suspend the Wise Account or Services held by your business or deny you access. This may be in favour of others who can provide proof of such authority.

4.4 Transacting on your own account. All activities under a Wise Account shall be deemed as activities carried out by you. Unless you are an Authorised User, you agree to only use the Services to transact on your own Wise Account and not on behalf of any other person or entity. Personal Wise Account holders may not allow others to access or use the Services or a Wise Account on their behalf.

4.5 Authorised Users. You can authorise others to access, use or operate a Wise Account or profile held by a business or otherwise use our Services on behalf of a business (but not by or on behalf of an individual) (an “Authorised User”). You acknowledge that if you provide such access to an Authorised User, we’ll deal with such Authorised User as if they were you for the purposes of this Agreement including any conduct related to a balance held in the Wise Account or other instructions, such as withdrawing or sending money. You will be bound by anything done by any Authorised User, even if they do something that is outside the scope of the authority you gave them. You acknowledge that Wise will not perform any verification of the authority of your Authorised Users to act on behalf of your business. You also acknowledge that we may disclose certain information about your Wise profile and Wise Account to any Authorised User and that we are not responsible for your Authorised User’s use of that information. Granting permission to any Authorised User does not relieve you of your responsibilities under this Agreement, including notifying us if your Wise Account has been compromised or if a transaction is suspected to be incorrect or unauthorised.

4.5 Disputes with Authorised Users. Disputes between you and an Authorised User relating to your Wise Account or our Services are a matter between you and the Authorised User. You recognize that Wise is not a party to any claim or dispute between you and your Authorised Users. Because you are bound by the actions of Authorised Users, it’s very important that you choose Authorised Users carefully. We suggest you regularly reassess who can be an Authorised User and regularly review the activity undertaken by Authorised Users.

In addition, you agree that we may make, directly or through any third party, any inquiries we consider necessary to validate the information you provided to us, including checking commercial databases.

We are doing this in order to reduce the likelihood of fraud and account takeovers, as well as to comply with regulatory requirements.

We therefore adopt high security standards for its safekeeping. You can refer to our other policies, mentioned in section 1.1 above for more information on how we store and use the information we receive from you.

5.4 Wise reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your Wise Account or the Services in the event we are unable to obtain or verify your information.

We recommend that you both call and email Customer Support right away. You can also freeze your Card with immediate effect on our App under the Account tab. You are also advised to change your password. Any undue delays in notifying us may affect the security of your Wise Account and also result in you being responsible for losses.

10.2 You can see our fee structure on the Pricing page. You can see our fee structure on the "Pricing" page, as may be changed from time to time. We may charge you a variable fee during periods of potential heightened volatility or unpredictability in the foreign exchange market, as determined by Wise.

For clarity, the fees applicable to you as set out on the "Pricing" page forms part of this Agreement which may be subject to change as set out in section 32.

10.3 We can make deductions for amounts you owe us. You agree that we are authorised to deduct our fees, any applicable Reversal amounts, or any amounts you owe us from your Wise Account, including funds held in a Jar.

10.4 Taxes. We may need to withhold taxes applicable to your use of our Services. In those cases, we will inform you of the applicable tax, withhold the corresponding amount, declare and pay the tax to the competent Government Authorities.

CONVERTING MONEY

11. Currency conversion

11.1 Our Services include the ability to convert currencies, for example:

• a) As part of a Money Transfer;
• b) In your Wise Account, where you may add money in one currency and then later use those funds to send money to a third party, spend money on your Card or withdraw money in a different currency; or
• c) In your Wise Account, where you may hold a balance in one currency and then convert it to a different currency.

11.2 Exchange rate. When we refer to an exchange rate in this Agreement, it means the exchange rate at the relevant time for the relevant currency pair (for example, GBP to EUR, USD to AUD) that is offered by Wise, which is typically provided by a reference rate provider. We may change our reference rate provider from time to time without notice to you.

11.3 For some currencies, we do not use the mid-market exchange rate, including where we are required by law to use a different reference rate for the exchange rate for your currency pair. For example, for currency conversions to Nigeria (NGN), we are required to use the rate set by the Central Bank of Nigeria. For these currencies we will notify you of the exchange rate offered by Wise when you initiate a current conversion.

11.4 We may not process your currency conversion order until we hold or have received the funds and fees specified on our Pricing Page. We will charge you with the relevant fees. It is your responsibility to ensure money is sent to us to fund a currency conversion order (whether in your Wise Account or as part of a Money Transfer or any other Service we provide) in a timely manner. We cannot be responsible for the time it takes for the money to be sent to us by your bank or payment service provider.

11.5 Refusing a currency conversion order. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to refuse any currency conversion order. Reasons for refusal may include but are not limited to incorrect information about a recipient, insufficient available funds, or where we believe you may have violated this Agreement, including where we believe you are or may be attempting to engage in currency trading or other trading for purposes not permitted by this Agreement. We will endeavour to notify you of any refusal, using the contact information that you have provided to us, stating (where possible) the reasons for such refusal and explaining how to correct any errors. However, we will not notify you if such notification may be unlawful.

11.6 Confirmation of currency conversion order. Each currency conversion order is given a unique transaction number which is shown in the order confirmation and transaction history. You should quote this transaction number when communicating with us about a particular currency conversion order.

YOUR WISE ACCOUNT

12. Information about your Wise account

12.1 About your Wise Account:

• a) Your Wise Account allows you to hold, spend, send and receive funds and convert currency.
• b) The funds held on your Wise Account will not earn any interest.
• c) You may hold your funds in any currencies that we support from time to time.
• d) You may withdraw funds from your Wise Account at any time subject to certain conditions, please see section 22 for more details.
• e) Certain limits may be placed on your Wise Account depending on your country of residence, verification status or other legal considerations. For more information about these limits, you can contact us.
• f) The funds held on your Wise Account belong to the individual or legal entity which is registered as the Wise Account holder.
• g) We may at our sole and absolute discretion reject a requested transaction, or refund a payment or other transaction, including without limitation, where the value of your Wise Account could directly or indirectly exceed any value permitted under the applicable laws and regulations or any other regulatory or risk limit prescribed for that Wise Account.

12.2 Wise is not a bank, and your Wise Account is not a bank account. Wise is not a bank and your funds held with Wise, including balances in your Wise Account, are not insured by any deposit protection scheme. Wise holds funds held by its customers in permissible investments in accordance with applicable laws. Wise owns the interest or other earnings on these investments, if any. The Account Details that we provide to you (as described further below) are a means to receive funds from third parties into a bank account held by Wise and its affiliates, so that Wise can credit your Wise Account, and are not a bank account number for a bank account held by you.

13. Adding money to your Wise account

13.1 Adding money to your Wise account To add money to your Wise Account, you need to log in to your Wise Account and follow the steps. We are not responsible for the funds you have added until we have received them. For clarity, when you add funds to your Wise Account, we are the recipient of those funds. This means the bank or payment service provider you used to send the funds to us is the one responsible for making sure we receive them so that we can credit them to your Wise Account.

13.2 Pay-in Methods. You may be presented with one or more methods of adding funds to your Wise Account. For example, you may be able to use a bank transfer, authorise Wise to debit the money from your bank or payment account with a third party, or use a credit card or debit card (in this Agreement, we will call these methods “Pay-in Methods”). The number of Pay-in Methods made available to you will depend on a number of factors including where you live and your verification status with us. We cannot guarantee the availability of any particular Pay-in Method and we may change or stop offering a Pay-in Method.

13.3 Pay-in Methods must be in your name. Any Pay-In Method that you use to add money to your Wise Account must be in your name.

13.4 Chargebacks on your payment instrument. If you selected a Pay-in Method which can be subject to chargeback (for example a credit card), you agree that you will only exercise this chargeback right if:

• a) we have breached this Agreement; or
• b) there was an unauthorised use of your payment instrument, meaning that you did not execute or authorise the payment.

You agree that you will not exercise your chargeback right for any other reason. If we need to investigate or take any actions in connection with a chargeback caused by or related to you, we may charge you for our costs in doing so and may deduct those costs from your Wise Account or close your Wise Account or limit your access to our Services.

13.5 When we will credit your Wise Account. We will credit your Wise Account once we have received your funds. For some Pay-in Methods such as a credit or debit card, we will credit the funds as soon as possible subject to our right of Reversal. This means if we credit your Wise Account for the full amount you intended to add but this amount does not reach us within a reasonable time, and you use that credited amount, for instance to send money or make a purchase, we may deduct that amount from your Wise Account. This could make your Wise Account have a negative balance (see “What happens if you owe us money” in section 29.12).

13.6 Adding money with your debit or credit card. If you choose to add money using your debit or credit card, provided we offer this method, you will need to provide your card details to us, including your card number and cardholder name. When you choose to add money via debit or credit card, you confirm that your card details are correct, that you are authorised to access and transmit funds from your card account, that your card account is in good standing with the account-holding financial institution, and that you have the authority to initiate a debit or credit card payment in the amount at issue to or from your card account. You authorise us to initiate credits and debits to your bank account through card payment networks in order to process your transaction, including any applicable fees and charges, and this authorization shall remain in effect so long as you are able to use our Services, unless cancelled in accordance with this Agreement.

13.7 Restrictions on adding Money. We only offer the Pay-In Methods you see when you access our Services. Other methods, such as a paper or e-cheque, will not be accepted. For legal, security, or other reasons, there may be financial limits on particular payment methods or currencies, or on how much you can add to your Wise Account, including those set out in Section 12.1.

13.8 Adding money to your Wise Account from other sources. In certain currencies, we may provide you with local account details that you or a third party can use to send money directly to your Wise Account (“Account Details”). Account Details are not bank accounts. The Account Details that we provide to you are only a means to receive funds from third parties into a bank account held by Wise and its affiliates, so that Wise can credit your Wise Account that is held at the Wise entity described in the beginning of this Agreement (regardless of currency), and are not a bank account number for a bank account held by you.

13.9 We may carry out verification checks when you request Account Details in addition to the checks required to obtain a Wise Account, and we may carry out further checks on an ad-hoc basis. From time to time, your Account Details may change. When this occurs, you are responsible for updating third parties and other arrangements you may have to receive funds using your Account Details. Wise is not responsible for issues that arise when Account Details are changed, and it is your responsibility to notify third parties that your Account Details have changed.

13.10 If you provide your Account Details to a third party, you agree that you will not impose a surcharge or any other fee solely for accepting the receipt of funds in that way.

13.11 When money received is shown in your Wise Account. Any money you receive into your Wise Account will be recorded in your transaction history. You should check and confirm the receipt of incoming funds in your Wise Account regularly and let us know if there are any irregularities or discrepancies.

13.12 Receiving Money from USD Account Details. You may receive funds into your Wise Account using the US Automated Clearing House system or domestic wire transfer method. If you choose to receive money using these methods, for example by sharing your USD Account Details with a payee, you will not have access to such funds until we receive the cleared funds, which could take several days or longer.

14. Reversals and chargebacks

14.1 Funds added to your Wise Account may be subject to Reversal. Funds added to your Wise Account could be Reversed or subject to a chargeback, which means that you will not get those funds back. If a Reversal or chargeback causes you to have a negative balance, you will be immediately liable to Wise for the negative balance plus any fees. Funds added to your Wise Account may be Reversed by Wise, or may be Reversed or subject to a chargeback to the person paying you the money or the payment provider, and/or may be liable to repayment to Wise if, without limitation, we have reason to believe:

• a) Wise, or any other party, sent the funds to you in error;
• b) The sending of the funds was unauthorised or fraudulently undertaken or induced;
• c) The funds were received for activities that appears to have violated a law, this Agreement, the Additional Documents, or any other agreement between you and Wise;
• d) The funds are, for any reason, Reversed by the sender or a payment provider; or
• e) Any other error may result in your Wise Account being credited in circumstances where you are not the lawful recipient and/or lawfully entitled to retain the funds.

14.2 If any funds are Reversed by the sender or any payment provider, you agree that Wise may refund, deduct or Reverse the amount of the funds plus any fees from your Wise Account (if applicable) in the same currency as the original transaction. If your Wise Account balance for the relevant currency is insufficient to cover the amount of a refund or Reversal, Wise may at its discretion perform a currency conversion in order to refund or Reverse the transaction, subject to the exchange rate being offered by Wise in the applicable currencies at that time.

14.3 Chargeback Fees. If you receive a debit or credit card-funded payment into your Wise Account and you (or a third party) pursue a chargeback for the transaction with the card issuer, then Wise may apply a fee for facilitating the chargeback process and will remove the chargeback funds from your Wise Account, including funds held in a Jar.

15. Maintaining your Wise account

15.1 Transaction history is displayed on your Wise Account. All of your transactions (including your current balance, funds you have added, received, sent and/or withdrawn), including related fees and exchange rates, if applicable, are recorded in the statement section of your Wise Account.

15.2 Statements. You have the right to request a physical account statement showing your Wise Account activity. You may view your Wise Account statement by logging into your Wise Account. Please note that it may be possible to view your Wise Account in a way that some of your transactions are hidden. This is to allow you to isolate transactions from particular recipients to determine your spending with those recipients. Be sure to readjust your viewing preferences if you have used this feature to default to see all transactions.

15.3 Check your Wise Account regularly. You must check your Wise Account regularly and carefully and contact us immediately if you don’t recognise a transaction or think we have made a payment incorrectly. You must tell us about any unauthorised or incorrectly executed transactions immediately.

15.4 Auto Conversion. For certain currencies, you may be able to set one or more conversion orders to be automatically executed once the exchange rate you pick is offered by our Services (an “auto conversion order”). There may be limits to the number of auto conversion orders you are able to set up, as well as the amounts of money you can schedule to convert. Wise does not guarantee that it will be able to execute your auto conversion order in all circumstances.

15.5 You accept the risks of holding funds in multiple currencies. You agree and accept all the risks associated with maintaining an account that can hold balances in multiple currencies including any risks associated with fluctuations in the relevant exchange rates over time. 15.6 We are not a currency trading platform. Wise is not a currency trading platform. You agree that you will not use your Wise Account for seeking to profit from currency conversion or foreign exchange trading or other types of speculative trading, or for speculative trading purposes, conversion arbitrage, conversion options or any other activity that Wise determines is primarily for the purpose of gaining or making gains based on currency conversion rates.

Accordingly, you should not use our Services, including the Wise Account or the auto conversion order function for this purpose, including creating multiple auto conversion orders or a series of Money Transfers without the intention of completing them. If we detect that you are using our Services for this purpose, we may, at our sole discretion, set a limit on the number of auto conversion orders you may create, cancel your orders, set a limit on the amount of money you can convert or transfer in one or more currencies or in the same currency, restrict your ability to access certain features or use our Services, or suspend or close your Wise Account. Wise may also hold, cancel, or reverse any transaction we determine to violate this policy and disgorge your gains.

15.7 Negative Balances. You promise to always have a zero or positive balance in your Wise Account and to repay Wise if your Wise Account balance is negative, including as a result of a chargeback, Reversal, deduction of fees, any other error, or any other action. That negative amount represents an amount you owe to Wise and you must repay the negative amount immediately without any notice from us. We may send you reminders or take such other actions to recover the negative amount from you, for example, we may use a debt collection service or take further legal actions. We may charge you for any costs we may incur as a result of these collection efforts. For more information, see “What Happens if you owe us money” in section 31.10.

16. Jars

16.1 Jars. Jars may be used by you, for example, to keep funds for a designated purpose in the future, such as travel or to assist with your budgeting. You can only put funds into your Jar by moving money from a balance in your Wise account. You can use the funds directly from a Jar to send or transfer funds out of the Jar to external accounts or move the money back into your Wise Account balance. The funds within a Jar can be enabled for spending through Card transactions but they may not be accessed via direct debits. You should keep enough unrestricted money in your Wise Account to cover all anticipated fees. Wise is not responsible for fees resulting from unfunded transactions due to funds being in a Jar.

16.2 Jars are not savings accounts, do not have their own account numbers, and don’t earn interest. Money held in your Jars does not earn any interest and is not insured by any deposit protection scheme.

17. Using or spending funds in your Wise Acount: Cards

17.1 Cards. The Card is a Debit card that can be used to access and spend the funds in your Wise Account and it can be used, for example, to pay for goods and services ​online, over the phone, or in person. ​The Card can be used to withdraw money from ATMs overseas, depending on the availability. The Card is not a guarantee card, charge card or credit card. It is not for resale. The Card may be cancelled, repossessed, or revoked by you at any time without prior notice subject to applicable law.

17.2 Digital card. Once you have applied for a physical Card, you may also apply for a digital Card. Your digital Card will have a different set of card details from your physical Card, but will draw from the funds in your Wise Account in the same manner as your physical Card. Your digital Card is activated instantly once those details are provided to you, and can be used right away. The issuance of the digital Card is free of charge and there are no monthly or annual fees. You can freeze your digital Card at any time and unfreeze it once you are ready to use it again.

17.3 Verification. We may carry out verification checks when you request a Card in addition to the checks required to obtain a Wise Account, and we may carry out further checks on an ad-hoc basis. These checks may increase the time it takes to process your order for a Card. We are not responsible for any delays as a result of carrying out those checks. If you have paid a fee for your Card but we decide you do not meet our verification requirements, we will cancel your Card and refund the fee you paid for your Card within 14 days of our decision. We may not refund the fee in certain circumstances.

17.4 You agree to pay the Card transaction fees set forth in the Pricing page. Certain transactions for getting cash or cash equivalents (such as ATM withdrawals, getting cash from a merchant or bank, money orders, travellers cheques, foreign exchange or bureau de change), and account funding transactions where the Card is used to fund e-wallets and accounts or items which may be convertible to cash (such as casino chips, cryptocurrencies and lottery tickets), may incur additional fees. All the Card transaction fees will be withdrawn from your Wise Account and will be assessed as long as there are funds remaining on your Wise Account. If at any time your remaining funds are less than the Card transaction fees being assessed, the funds in your Wise Account will be applied to the Card transaction fees resulting in a zero amount on your Wise Account, and your Card may be declined. The remainder of the Card transaction fees due will be collected the next time you add funds to your Wise Account.

17.5 When you change your profile address to a new country, your existing Cards will continue working in the same manner and will be subject to the same fee structure on the latest Wise entity serving you, until you order a new Card. When you change your profile address to a new country and order a new Card, all the new and existing Cards associated with your profile will be subject to the fee structure for transactions for getting cash or cash equivalents of the newest Wise entity serving you.

17.6 How to activate your Card. When you receive your Card, please sign the back of it as soon as you receive it and keep it safe. The Card PIN is a 4-digit code that you may be asked to enter when making a payment using the Card.

17.7 Refunds in different currencies. If you receive a refund on a Card payment in a currency for which you have a balance, we will credit said balance. If you receive a refund in a currency that you do not hold a balance or if you receive a refund in a currency we do not support, we will credit your Wise Account in the card's default currency, which may require us to convert the currency.

17.8 You must not make purchases or withdraw funds with your Card that exceed the amount of funds available in your Wise Account. If any purchase or withdrawal takes you over your available funds or the card limits indicated by Wise the transaction will be declined.

17.9 Cards for businesses. If you have a Wise Account opened for a business, you may only use your Card for business purposes and not personal purposes.

17.10 Spending limits. We may increase or decrease spending limits or add additional limits from time to time in our sole discretion without notice to you except as required by law, for security or other reasons.

17.11 Other limits. We may, at our reasonable discretion, decline the use of your Card for situations including, but not limited to:

• a) Pre-authorized regular payments;
• b) Transactions at self-service petrol pumps;
• c) Transactions for cash (other than ATM withdrawal) including for example cash back, cash from a bank, money orders, traveller’s cheques, foreign exchange, or bureau de change, or any illegal purposes;
• d) Where it is not possible for the supplier of the good or service to obtain online authorization that you have sufficient funds in your Wise Account for the transaction. For example: transactions on trains, ships, and some in-flight purchases;
• e) Where there is suspicion that the Card is being used to exploit vulnerabilities in a merchant’s payment processing or the card payment ecosystem; or
• f) Where we have grounds to believe that you have made false statements in an attempt to obtain reimbursement for a previous transaction.

17.12 We are not liable for certain losses. You are solely responsible for losses arising from your gross negligence or fraud. We also will not be liable in the following instances:

• a) If through no fault of ours, you do not have enough funds available in your Wise Account to complete the transaction;
• b) If a merchant refuses to accept your Card;
• c) If an ATM where you are making a cash withdrawal does not have enough cash;
• d) If an electronic terminal where you are making a transaction does not operate properly;
• e) If access to your Card has been blocked after you reported your Card lost or stolen or if Wise has reason to believe that your Wise Account was compromised; [SEE When can we suspend or cancel your Card?]
• f) If there is a hold or your funds are subject to legal or administrative process or other encumbrance restricting their use;
• g) If the requested transaction is unauthorised as defined in section [31] of this Agreement; If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, or computer or communication failure) prevent the completion of the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken; or
• h) Any other exception stated in this Agreement.

17.13 No Warranty Regarding Goods or Services as Applicable. Wise is not responsible for the quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of any goods or services you purchase with your Card. Any disputes or issues with any goods or services you purchase with your Card should be addressed to the merchants or individuals from whom the goods and services were purchased.

17.14 Returns and Refunds. If you are entitled to a refund for any reason for goods or services obtained with your Card, you agree to accept credits to your Wise Account for such refunds and agree to the refund policy of that merchant. Merchant refunds will be provided to Wise for sending to the Wise Account when they are received. Wise has no control over when a merchant sends a refund transaction; there may be a delay between the date of the refund transaction and the date the refund amount is credited into your Wise Account and refunds from merchants may be in an amount the same or less than the amount of the corresponding debit.

17.15 When can we suspend or cancel your Card. We can close or suspend your Wise Account as provided in section [7.5] and we can suspend or cancel your Card, including if the activity on your Card or Wise Account appears suspicious, fraudulent or we believe it to be associated with criminal activity or activity which is inconsistent with this Agreement. Unusual or multiple purchases may prompt a merchant inquiry or Card suspension to allow us to investigate such activity. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to limit your use of the Card. We may refuse to issue or replace a Card or may revoke Card privileges, other than as required by applicable law. You agree not to use or allow others to use an expired, revoked, cancelled, suspended or otherwise invalid Card. We will not incur liability to you because of the unavailability of the funds that may be associated with your Card or Wise Account.

17.16 Unjust enrichment. In case you notice a refund has been received twice for the same transaction, for example in both your Wise Account and from a merchant, you are required immediately to let us know, and we always reserve the right to debit back a previously issued refund when a refund for the same transaction has been provided by the merchant as well, without prior notice.

17.17 Alteration of charge amount without authorization. Subject to the provisions of the PSL, you may notice us of a transaction in which the charge amount was altered without your authorization. In such case we will refund you the difference between this amount and the amount you informed us you were supposed to be charged with, in its value on the day it was charged. The refund will be performed as soon as possible and no later than 8 Business Days from the date of your notice. This does not derogate from our right to debit back the refund, if we have found that you were liable for the amount you were originally charged with.

17.18 Disputed transactions. In case of disputed Card transactions, we may, subject to any restrictions under applicable law, decide not to proceed with chargebacks at our sole discretion. Reasons for this might include:

• a) Not receiving sufficient information to determine that an error occurred;
• b) Not receiving a notification about the payment error in a timely manner;
• c) Disputes being caused by the risky nature of transactions undertaken with the Card;
• d) We have evidence that you or someone you gave your Card to authorised the transactions in dispute.

18. Card Transactions

18.1 You authorise every transaction. You agree that any use by you of your Card, card number or PIN constitutes your authorization and consent to the transaction.

18.2 Cards for individuals are for your sole personal use. If you are an individual, you undertake not to authorise others to use your identity or user status, and you may not assign or otherwise transfer your Card to any other person or entity.

18.3 Employee cards are business cards. Where there are multiple cardholders within the same business account, including Authorized Users, any transaction authorised by any one of the cardholders is deemed to be effectively authorised by the business.

18.4 Priority of currencies and currency conversion when you use your Card. If you withdraw cash or make a purchase in a currency for which you hold a balance in your Wise Account, Wise will use that currency for your withdrawal or purchase and you consent to and authorise Wise to convert the currency in place of your Card network.

18.5 In a currency that you do not hold in your Wise Account. If you withdraw cash or make a purchase in a currency for which you do not hold in your Wise Account, or if you withdraw cash or make a purchase in a currency in an amount that exceeds the available funds that you hold in that currency, Wise may convert funds from another currency that you hold in your Wise Account to cover that transaction, and Wise currency conversion fees will apply. You cannot set a default or preferred currency to convert from.

18.6 When determining which currency to convert where you have more than one currency in your Wise Account, Wise will use the currency with the lowest conversion fee for the currency needed to complete the cash withdrawal or purchase made by you. In cases where the conversion from several currencies will have the same conversion fee, we will convert based on the highest conversion rate. For more information on which currencies would be used in the event that you use your Card to withdraw cash or make a purchase in a currency that you do not hold in your Wise Account, please check the Wise pricing page or contact Customer Support.

18.7 In a currency that is not supported by Wise: If you withdraw cash or make a purchase in a foreign currency that is not supported by Wise, the rate charged by the VISA ​network shall apply.

18.8 Please note that if you are offered the option at a point of sale (POS) terminal to pay in local currency or to pay in your home or another currency, ​you must pick the local currency if you want the Wise rate to apply to your transaction.

19. When your card expires

19.1 Your Card has an expiry date. You can only use your Card up until the expiry date which will be shown on the back of your Card and/or in the App.

19.2 We’ll aim to notify you 2 months before your current Card will expire. You then may order a new Card by following the instructions on our Website or App. A replacement Card fee may apply (see here).

19.3 If you do not want your Card to be renewed, you can simply let it expire without ordering a replacement. Your Card will be deactivated and you will not be able to use it after its expiry. You should destroy your expired Card.

20. Keep your Card safe

20.1 Keep your Card safe. Never let another person or party use your Card and keep it safe. Memorise your PIN and never disclose this and other security information to anyone.

Wise will not be liable for any loss arising due to any such unauthorised transaction(s) unless as required by applicable law.

20.2 Report any suspicious incidents. If your Card is lost or stolen, if you suspect that someone else knows your PIN, or if you think your Card, card number or PIN may be misused, you agree that you must stop using the Card, and immediately freeze or replace the Card. If this happens, we recommend that you both call and email Customer Support right away. You can also freeze your Card with immediate effect on our App under the Account tab. If you find the Card after you have reported it lost, stolen or misused, you must destroy it and tell us as soon as you find it.

20.3 Your Liability for Unauthorised Visa ​Debit Card Transactions. Unless your Card is issued to a business (in which case this does not apply), in addition to other limitations of liability provided for under this Agreement, your liability for the unauthorised use of your Card may also be limited by [Visa/MasterCard]​​. [Under the MasterCard​​ rules, you will have no liability for a transaction that was not authorised by you if you exercised reasonable care in safeguarding the Card from risk of loss or theft, and, upon becoming aware of such loss or theft, promptly reported such loss or theft to Customer Support.]/[Under the Visa rules, you will have no liability for a transaction that was not authorised by you if you were not fraudulent or negligent in the handling of the Card, and, upon becoming aware of the unauthorised transaction, promptly notified such transaction to Customer Support.] This chargeback policy is subject to change without notice and changes made by [Visa/MasterCard]​​​ ​ will automatically apply to you.

20.4 Replacement of card. If you need to replace your Card for any reason, please follow the instructions on our Website or App or ​contact Customer Support​. We will charge a fee for the replacement Card.

20.5 Disclosure of information to law enforcement authorities. If your Card is used without your permission, or is lost, stolen or if you suspect the Card may be misused, we may disclose to law enforcement agencies any information which we reasonably believe may be relevant.

21. Card cancellation rights

21.1 Cancelling your card. You may cancel your Card at any time with no charge by logging into your Wise Account or through the App. Your card fee and any delivery fee, where applied, is non-refundable. This part of the Agreement shall terminate, at the end of the Business Day after the date you cancelled your Card

You can also find out more information about the fees we charge on the Pricing page.

22.2 Payout Methods available to you. You may be presented with one or more methods of withdrawal (in this Agreement, we will call these methods "Payout Methods"). The number of Payout Methods made available to you will depend on a number of factors including where you live and your verification status with us. We cannot guarantee the use of any particular Payout Method and may change or stop offering a Payout Method at any time without notice to you.

22.3 You must provide correct information to us. When setting up your withdrawal request, you must ensure that the information you provide is correct and complete. We will not be responsible for money sent to the wrong recipient as a result of incorrect information provided by you.

22.4 What happens if you provide incorrect recipient information. If you have provided incorrect information to us, we may, but are not required to, assist you in recovering your funds. We cannot guarantee that such efforts will be successful as they rely on the policies and practices of other banks and institutions. In addition, Wise may not be able to confirm that your recipient’s name and account number match, as the names and other information associated with third party accounts may not be known to Wise. This means that if you provide an incorrect account number, your funds will most likely go to the wrong account.

22.5 Your withdrawal request is subject to limits. You agree that your Wise Account is subject to withdrawal limits. If your withdrawal request exceeds the current limit, we may decline your request or we may require you to provide additional documents to us so that we can carry out additional checks before allowing the money to be withdrawn.

22.6 Delay in withdrawal. We may delay a withdrawal in certain situations, including if we need to confirm that the withdrawal has been authorised, to complete verification checks, or if other payments to your Wise Account have been reversed (for example, as a result of a chargeback or Reversal). We cannot be held responsible for any such delays.

22.7 Finality. Payouts, currency conversions and Card or other transactions executed by us are final and irrevocable once you request them, unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or pursuant to applicable law.

This means that if you provide an incorrect account number, your funds will most likely go to the wrong account.

24.19 Finality. When you make a Money Transfer, the settlement and payout to the recipient are final and irrevocable unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or pursuant to applicable law.
