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 using PayNow in 3 easy steps

What is PayNow money transfer?

You can make a PayNow money transfer conveniently through the Wise app or desktop site, simply by scanning the PayNow QR for your payment. All you’ll need to do is set up your Wise money transfer, and pick PayNow as the payment method. You’ll be shown a unique QR code and can then log into your mobile banking service to scan and pay easily.

The QR code you’re provided is specific to your PayNow transfer, so you should not share it with others.

You can send up to 200,000 SGD per transfer when you use PayNow. There’s no limit to the number of transactions you can make - but you’ll need to make sure you’re paying from an account held in your own name.
