International payment costs go beyond the transfer fee. Learn how better timing, clearer exchange-rate comparisons and forward planning can help businesses reduce unnecessary costs.

The mid-market rate is the rate you see on Google when you search a currency pair. No bank or broker actually transacts at it. Wise built an entire marketing campaign around it — but a percentage fee is economically identical to a spread. Here's how to calculate your real all-in FX cost and why that number is the only one that matters.

Wise Business is not a hedging product. It doesn't offer forward contracts, market orders, or any FX hedging tools. For a business buying stock from a US supplier with a payment due in 90 days, that's not a minor limitation — it means your actual cost in GBP is unknown until the moment you pay.
