    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

    How to send money

    1. Just tap in how much, and where to.
    2. Then make a local payment to Wise, whether it's with a bank transfer, Swift or your debit or credit card.
    3. And that's it.

    Wise converts your money at the 'inter-bank' rate – the real rate – so you save big time (even versus the guys saying there's 'zero' commission). On Wise, there's no room for sneaky bank surcharges or creeping hidden charges.

    How much does it cost to send money abroad?

    Pay a small, flat fee and percentage

    To send money in NZD to AUD, you pay a small, flat fee of 1.34 NZD + 0.25% of the amount that's converted (you'll always see the total cost upfront). See our transfer calculator.


    Fee depends on your chosen transfer type

    Some transfer types have different fees which are usually tiny.


    No hidden fees

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

    How long will a money transfer take?

    Sometimes, different payment methods or routine checks may affect the transfer delivery time. We’ll always keep you updated, and you can track each step in your account.
