Ratings and reviews

Recently downloaded and used as I needed to convert GBP to USD and transfer to the USA. Set up was easy. My wize account number changed the second time I used it, which was pretty strange but has remained the same ever since. It's inexpensive as well to convert and transfer. Would definitely use again and would definitely recommend.

So far, to set up an account took 90 minutes. Should have taken 5. The app kept locking up during the verification, backed out and tried again two times. Then restarted the app and found three pending deposit transfers. Canceled two easy enough, thumbs up for that forethought👍. But still shouldn't have happened. Anyway, after about 9 more tries to verify my info the one transfer did go through. Not sure what I'll do with it now. Not very confident about using it to send money to anyone.

Works... most of the time. Don't count on it if you need it for an emergency, though. You pretty much have to initiate your transfer and cross your fingers hoping it will transfer in the 13 minutes it claims. I have a real problem with it not being reliable. Been many times I've had to jump through some SERIOUS hoops because it just decided to take a LOT longer to transfer, for no apparent reason, and with no reliable indication of how long its going to take.

It’s not a bug. It’s a rebrand.

Sure, we look different. Bolder, cleaner and a whole lot greener.

But what we’re building for you will never change: money without borders. Your money, moving freely wherever it wants to go.
