The best solution for low-cost international transactions: How Wise lowers your fees

  • September 16, 2024

In today's interconnected world, international transactions are almost unavoidable. However, high fees and unfavourable exchange rates can often be a major obstacle. This is where Wise comes in - the innovative platform that ensures transparency and cost efficiency.

What is Wise?

Wise, formerly known as TransferWise, is a leading provider of international money transfers. With Wise you benefit from low fees and real exchange rates that traditional banks often don't offer.

How does it work?

Wise uses a network of accounts around the world. When you send money, it is deposited into a local account in your country and then paid out from the recipient's local account in their country. This reduces costs and speeds up the transaction considerably.

Advantages of Wise:

  1. Multi-currency account: You can store and manage more than 50 different currencies.
  2. Local bank accounts: You can open a local bank account in local currency in more than 14 countries. This allows you to send or receive money directly from your domestic account as if you were a local.
  3. Real exchange rates: You get the real market rate and not the poor rate often offered by banks.
  4. Speed: Your transactions are usually processed faster than with traditional banks.
  5. Ease of use: The user-friendly app makes international transfers simple and stress-free.
  6. Low fees: Wise uses a transparent fee structure with no hidden costs.
  7. No monthly account maintenance fee: There is no monthly service fee for the account.
