    • Bank Transfer via Wise: If you send your deposit to your Wise bank account in a local currency (e.g. RON, BGN, MYR, IDR), Wise can convert and deposit it to your account, in a currency we support. Local currencies are defined by the entity that holds your account.

      On the Quote screen, Source Currency will populate with the local currency you selected. You can modify the quantity of the Source Currency to see applicable fees, conversion rate, amount of the Target Currency that will arrive in your account and expected arrival time. Now choose a Target Currency (e.g. USD, EUR). Once confirmed, you will receive the Wise bank account details and further instructions.

    • Transfer from Wise Balance: You can see the balances in a multi-currency Wise account, and, if the currency is supported, initiate a fund transfer to your account. If the currency is not supported you can convert it to one that is (e.g. EUR, USD, GBP, AUD, HUF, CHF, SGD (not supported for IBIE and IBCE) or NZD (not supported for IBIE, IBCE and IBSG)) and transfer it to your account.
