Wise 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

I do use Wise literally daily from almost three years. I have to travel a lot, and I find their rates to be the best with no questions.

Very happy indeed. The service has always been quick, safe, I always seem to get the best exchange rates at the time too. The fees are quite low. Its been a great discovery and perfect for my needs.

Their refusal to communicate what their actual issue is, or be willing to resolve and acknowledge their mistakes takes away any confidence i was willing to extend for handling our money.

Very good so far — the experience has been smooth, reliable, and consistent. Everything seems to work as expected, and I’m quite satisfied with the results up to this point.

BEWARE: Wise closed my account without notice after asking me to deposit funds to keep the application process going. They sent me an Interac e-transfer request which I used to deposit $3,000. Then they closed the account due to not meeting their community standards and kept my money. I have been fighting with them for a week trying to get the money back. Since they closed the account before returning my funds they have no record of anything and dealing with their customer support has been an absolute nightmare, have sent and received upwards of 20 emails back and forth and still don't have my funds returned. They require a bank statement showing the account name, a record of the transaction including account numbers and payment reference numbers etc. I have given them all this numerous times now but keep getting passed around and then asked for the same things again. It's an absolute drain of my time and energy. My banking institution where the funds were deposited informed me that the reference number I gave them should be the only thing they need to reverse the deposit. This has been an excruciating process that I still don't have a resolution to after 6 days and over 20 emails back and forth with their support. This should be a simple resolution. Firstly, they should not accept money from me until my account is fully approved. Secondly, they should have returned the funds before closing the account. Lastly, according to my bank, and Interac that I have spoken to, they should only require the payment reference number to reverse the transaction, especially since they initiated the closure and their policy states that they will return the funds. This has been a horrible experience and I would never recommend Wise to anyone in Canada. I don't think their agents even understand the payment systems they use.

Although Wise has its fair share of issues, we haven't found a better tool to send regular international payments. We'll be using Wise until something better comes along.

THEY WILL FREEZE YOUR MONEY. DO NOT USE IT! I've been using Wise for a long time without any issues. However, after not using it for over a year I so, I needed to make a transfer to Brazil. I updated the app and re-entered my information multiple times until I could finally initiate a transfer. But when I tried to send the money, I kept getting a message saying, "Payment Unsuccessful," with no further explanation. I tried two more times and encountered the same error. When I logged out and back in, I saw that Wise had debited my bank account three times the amount I intended to transfer. Instead of sending the money to the recipient, it was transferred to my Wise account. I called Wise, but the first person I spoke to was unhelpful. She kept repeating that the money couldn't be refunded because I hadn't called after the first failed attempt. I explained that the app only said "payment unsuccessful," so I thought it was fine to try again. She suggested I transfer the money back to my bank account, but I didn't think I should have to pay a fee for that since I had to transfer back to my account due to a glitch on the app. She also replied to convincing me to keep the money there to use to pay other things and I told her I don't need to make other transfers and I will not use it for other things since I can use my regular credt card and not pay transfer/transfer fees. I use Wise strictly for international transfers. She acknowledged that there was a glitch, which had since been resolved, but still refused to refund my money. When I asked to speak to a manager, she refused, saying there wasn't one available and that I should try calling later, but she couldn't guarantee I'd reach a manager. I hung up and called again. The second person I spoke to was more helpful. Although I still could not talk with a manager she escalated the issue and also asked if I had tried transferring the money back to my account. I told her I hadn't, and I explained why. While she put me on hold, I tried transferring again, as the previous agent said the glitch was fixed. Once more, the money was transferred to my Wise account, and I got the same "payment unsuccessful" message. At this point, while still one the phone, I decided to transfer the money back to my bank account since I'd already been charged four times the amount I wanted to transfer. I planned to request a refund for the fee, as this whole situation was due to their glitch. However, when I tried to transfer the money back, I kept getting stuck on the screen asking me to review the transaction. My money is now stuck in my Wise account with a "sending pending" status, and I can't complete the transaction. The second agent said it would be resolved in 1-2 business days, but all I received was an email saying it could take up to 14 business days to resolve. The money has already been taken from my bank account, so why is it so hard for them to issue a refund when they know there was a glitch? I’ve opened a dispute with my bank. This entire situation is incredibly frustrating. Thankfully, the amount isn't too large, but the fact that my money is stuck in their account is infuriating. After reading other reviews from people who experienced similar issues and were told repeatedly that their problem would be resolved in a few days, only to wait for months. I've decided I’ll no longer use Wise. See screenshots.

It was the most comfortable paying experience I've ever had. I've tried several only payment methods and none of them is so easy to use. And on top of that, it has the LOWEST fees.

It was very easy to create an account and start transferring money to it, it has an easy to understand interface which makes it very simple to navigate to any of its sections, I can use it on mobile devices as on computer, allows you to manage your money securely with measures such as two-factor authentication, allows you to work with suppliers from different parts of the world.
