    Any of you using TransferWise?

    I've heard about them for a while but just did some research on them. Interesting company. Doing extremely well and looks like they would be a good fit for this industry. They just got valued at $1billion. Definitely making noise and doing it the right way (giving more back to the customers). Have any of you used them?

    If you haven't heard of them take a look (referral link attached) https://transferwise.com/u/4d2a4

    Cool they have an app to transfer money with a 4.6 star rating. I installed it out of curiosity and it's pretty slick!



    They definitely got a good thing going. Richard Branson is a $25,000,000 invester in the company

        Banking is being commoditized.
        • Wire services
        • ACH services
        • P2P lending
        • Kickstarting


        And maybe to become fossilized or with a revised and reinvented footprint -- time will tell.
        Online tellers with cameras and voice (maybe with customer located scanning verification) are possible in the near time future.

        Eventually there may be a worldwide ACH/SEPA like clearing system in answer to these services. I see them as needing to adapt to that as well as the banks.

        Richard Branson has money to burn -- he's probably just speculating with a tax angle.

          I looked at their transfer fees & didn't notice much difference between Natwest & my spanish account Sabadell

          I'd like to hear more about them, considering i'm always transferring money from Britain & Spain.

            What was the difference between your banks current conversion rate and the TransferWise conversion rate? What was the difference in fees?

                Far from .000001% it's substantial especially on exchange rates

                  Some of the innovation happening online atm is fantastic!

                  I'm also a big fan of GoCardless.com, another great idea that saves businesses money

                    Oh I know. I meant in general, the "business" of shuffling money around and taking a slice for doing so.

                    For this they do a great job. Impressive.

                          If I was to take out 400euro from a cash machine in Spain using Natwest, about 300 gbp, It would cost 5 or 6 gbp & if I spend 100 dollars in a card payment to the US it's about 1.49 variable.

                          It seems the higher the amount the less Natwest charge. They're a good bank, always trying to help.

                          Sabadell is a new account, so I haven't made many payments overseas as yet
