Save on exchange rate markups

The cost of your transfer comes from the fee and the exchange rate. Many high street banks offer “no fee”, while hiding a markup in the exchange rate, making you pay more.

At Wise, we’ll never do that. We only use the mid-market exchange rate, and show our fees upfront. This table compares the fees you’d really pay when sending money with the most popular banks and providers, or with us.

How to send money to a bank account in 3 easy steps

What is Bank account money transfer?

Sending an international bank account money transfer is often one of the most convenient ways for your recipient to get their money. Once you initiate the transfer, your recipient doesn’t need to do anything at all - the funds will be automatically deposited into their bank account as soon as they’re processed. That could even mean their money is available instantly, depending on the details of the payment.

All you’ll need from your recipient is their personal contact and bank account details. The exact bank details required varies a bit based on the country you're sending money to, but you’ll be guided through the Wise bank account money transfer process step by step as you arrange your payment.

Add your recipient’s email address, and they’ll get a message when the money is on the way, and when it’s available for spending, too.

How much does it cost to send money to a bank account?

To send money to a bank account with Wise, you will pay a small, flat fee and a percentage of the amount that's converted. We will always show you the total cost upfront - and you can rely that we won't hide any further fees in the exchange rate.

Sending money shouldn’t cost the earth, so we built Wise to save you money when you transfer and exchange internationally. We charge as little as possible: right now a tiny fee, eventually free.

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