4.1 Requirement. Your Business must be organised or registered in a country or territory that we support in order to use our Services.

4.2 One Wise Profile. Your Business may only be opened under one Wise Profile unless we explicitly approve otherwise. Where duplicate Wise Profiles are detected, Wise can close or merge these duplicate profiles without notifying you.

4.3 You must have authority to bind your Business. You must confirm that you in fact have authority to bind the Business on whose behalf you use our Services, and the Business accepts the terms of this Agreement. We may ask you at any time to provide proof of such authority. If you do not provide proof of authority that is acceptable to us, we may close or suspend the Wise Profile or Services held by your Business or deny you access. This may be in favour of others who can provide proof of such authority.

4.4 Authorised Users. You can authorise others to access or use our Services on behalf of a Business (but not by or on behalf of an individual) (an “Authorised User”). You acknowledge that if you provide such access to an Authorised User, we’ll deal with such Authorised User as if they were you for the purposes of this Agreement, such as sending money. You will be bound by anything done by any Authorised User, even if they do something that is outside the scope of the authority you gave them. You acknowledge that Wise will not be liable for any verification of the authority of your Authorised Users to act on behalf of your Business. You also acknowledge that we may disclose certain information about your Wise Profile to any Authorised User and that we are not responsible for your Authorised User’s use of that information.

4.5 Disputes with Authorised Users. Disputes between you and an Authorised User relating to your Wise Profile or our Services are a matter between you and the Authorised User. You recognise that Wise is not a party to any claim or dispute between you and your Authorised Users. Because you are bound by the actions of Authorised Users, it’s very important that you choose Authorised Users carefully. We suggest you regularly reassess who can be an Authorised User and regularly review the activity undertaken by Authorised Users.

6. Staying Safe While Using Our Services

6.1 We recommend you use the Services to send money to trusted and verified businesses and third parties that are known to you or that you have already done business with. You should be cautious when sending money to recipients you don’t know and have never dealt with before.

6.2 When accessing your Wise Profile, you should at the minimum do the following:

  • (a) Change your password regularly and ensure that it is not reused for other online accounts.
  • (b) Never share your login details with anyone else. This includes the membership number, password or other security credentials. If you suspect that your account may be accessed by someone else, contact Customer Support. We will never ask you for your password.
  • (c) Always use strong passwords, for example ones that use a mixture of letters, numbers, and symbols. Here is recommended guidance you can follow.
  • (d) Set up 2-step authentication, if applicable.
  • (e) Keep your email account secure. You may reset your password using your email address. Let Customer Support know immediately if your email account becomes compromised.
  • (f) Regularly update the App on your device to the latest version available.
  • (g) Regularly update your device’s browser to the latest version available.
  • (h) Maintain your device’s operating systems with regular security updates provided by the operating system provider.
  • (i) Install and maintain the latest anti-virus software on your device, where applicable.
  • (j) It is essential to ensure every time you are entering your Wise username and password that it is only ever on our official App (downloaded from the iOS or Android store) or if via a browser, at wise.com. Emails and SMS messages sent by fraudsters may lead to fake login portals that could phish your login information and 2-step authentication details. Similarly, criminals can place malicious adverts on search engines that lead to fake websites of trusted businesses, including Wise. More information on how to avoid falling for phishing scams can be found on our website here.
  • (k) If you suspect you have become a victim of a scam, contact our Customer Support.
  • (l) You must make all reasonable efforts to secure any record of your password including keeping the record in a secure electronic or physical location accessible or known only to you, or in a place where the record is unlikely to be found by a third party.

6.3 You must NOT:

  • (a) Disclose your login credentials or your 2-step authentication details to anyone. You must keep them safe. For example, you should not voluntarily disclose your Wise Profile password to a third party.
  • (b) Disclose your Wise Profile password in a recognisable way for any Wise Profile, on any device or App.
  • (c) Let anyone access your Wise Profile, or watch you accessing it, including letting someone else take remote control of your device(s).
  • (d) Keep a record of your login details or passwords in a way that allows any third party to misuse or obtain the password to your Wise Profile. For example, you should not use any functionality that allows your login details or passwords to be stored by the computer or browser you are using or to be cached or otherwise recorded.
  • (e) Do anything which may in any way avoid or compromise the 2-step authentication process.

6.4 Contact us if you suspect your Wise Profile has been compromised. If you suspect your Wise Profile or other login credentials are stolen, lost, used without your authorisation, or otherwise compromised, you must contact Customer Support immediately. We recommend that you both call and email Customer Support right away.

6.5 Any delays in notifying us of a compromised account, may affect the security of your account and result in losses that you would be responsible for. You must provide us with any reasonable assistance we require from you to investigate and take any action required to secure your account.

6.6 Extra Services you use may have additional security requirements and you must familiarise yourself with those.

6.7 You are responsible for ensuring that your information technology, computer programmes and platform is configured to access our Services. We cannot guarantee that our Services will be free from bugs or viruses.

YOUR WISE PROFILE

  • (a) Your Wise Profile allows your Business to send and receive funds.
  • (b) Your Wise Profile is not a bank account or a stored value facility. The funds that we receive for your Wise Profile pending its transfer to you will not be considered a prepaid payment instrument or electronic money. It will not earn any interest or return.
  • (c) You may send and receive funds in the currencies that we support from time to time.
  • (d) You may not place a charge or other form of security over your Wise Profile.
  • (e) We may place certain limits on your Wise Profile depending on your Business type, registered address, verification status or other legal considerations. You can contact our Customer Support team for more information about these limits. We will determine your registered address on the basis of such evidence as we may determine.
  • (f) We may at our sole and absolute discretion reject a requested transaction, or refund a payment or other transaction, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, where the value of the transaction could directly or indirectly exceed any value permitted under the applicable laws and regulations or any other regulatory or risk limit prescribed for your Wise Profile.

RECEIVING MONEY

11. Receiving Money

11.1 Receiving Money In certain currencies, you may create a payment link to receive money from a third party ("Request Money") or we may provide you with local account details (“Account Details”). The Account Details that we provide to you are only a means for Wise to receive funds on your behalf from third parties into a bank account held by Wise and its affiliates, before Wise makes a further transfer of such funds in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) to your designated external bank account as set out in section 12 below. The Account Details are not a bank account number for a bank account held by you.

11.2 We may carry out verification checks when you request Account Details in addition to the checks required to open your Wise Profile, and we may carry out further checks on an ad-hoc basis. From time to time your Account Details may change. When this occurs, we will notify you, and you are responsible for updating third parties and other arrangements where you may be using your Account Details to receive funds. Wise is not responsible for issues that arise when Account Details are changed, and it is your responsibility to notify third parties that your Account Details have changed.

11.3 Using Payment Links to receive money. You can create a payment link when requesting a payment from a third party. This feature allows a third party to send you money via a number of available methods which may include credit/debit cards, their Wise Profile, bank transfer or open banking. When using open banking, your Wise account details and requested amount are pre-populated for the third party. Wise is not responsible for issues that arise when changes are made by the third-party to the pre-populated details including the payment amount.

11.4 When money received is shown in your Wise Profile transaction history. Any money you receive will be recorded in your transaction history. You should check and confirm the receipt of incoming funds regularly and let us know if there are any irregularities or discrepancies. For clarity, when funds are sent to you, we are the recipient of those funds. This means the bank or payment service provider that sends the funds to us is the one responsible for making sure we receive them so that we can transfer the funds in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) to your designated external bank account.

Back to top


12. Transfers to your Designated External Bank Account

12.1 When we receive money as set out in section 11, and subject to the provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, our right to suspend, restrict, or hold funds under section 8 and section 13), we will automatically:

  • (a) convert any funds received in a currency other than Indonesian Rupiah into Indonesian Rupiah (IDR); and
  • (b) transfer the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) funds to your designated external bank account.

Conversions of funds received in other currencies to Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) will be completed using Wise’s exchange rate at the relevant time for the relevant currency pair (for example, GBP to IDR, USD to IDR). This is usually the mid-market exchange rate provided by a reference rate provider, which we may change without notice to you. For certain currencies, we do not use the mid-market exchange rate, including where we are required by law to use a different reference rate for the exchange rate for your currency pair. For these currencies we will notify you of the exchange rate offered by Wise when the currency conversion is initiated.

12.2 You must provide correct information to us. When setting up the designated bank account, you must ensure that the information you provide is correct and complete. We will not be responsible for money sent to the wrong recipient because of incorrect information provided by you.

12.3 What happens if you provide incorrect recipient information. If you have provided incorrect information to us, we may, but are not required to, assist you in recovering your funds. We cannot guarantee that such efforts will be successful as they rely on the policies and practices of other banks and institutions. In addition, Wise may not be able to confirm that your recipient’s name and account number match, as the names and other information associated with third party accounts may not be known to Wise. This means that if you provide an incorrect account number, your funds will most likely go to the wrong account.

12.4 Your Wise Profile may be subject to limits. If the transaction exceeds any applicable limits, we may: (a) decline the transaction; (b) require you to provide additional documents to us so that we can carry out additional checks before processing the transaction; or (c) take any other action as we consider appropriate in our sole discretion.

12.5 Delay. We may delay the transfer of funds to the designated bank account in certain situations, including if we need to complete verification checks, or if other payments to your Wise Profile have been reversed (for example, because of a chargeback or Reversal). We cannot be held responsible for any such delays, provided that we have acted reasonably in delaying the transaction.

12.6 Finality. Pay-outs and currency conversions or other transactions executed by us are final and irrevocable, unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or pursuant to applicable law.

13. Reversals and Chargebacks

13.1 Funds received may be subject to Reversal or chargeback. Funds received through your Account Details could be Reversed or subject to a chargeback, which means that you will not get those funds transferred to your external bank account. A Reversal or chargeback may occur where the funds received are Reversed by Wise or Reversed to or subject to a chargeback by the person paying you the money or the payment provider.

13.2 When a Reversal or chargeback may happen. You may be liable for and/or have funds reversed or be subject to a chargeback when, without limitation, we have reason to believe:

  • (a) Wise, or any other party, sent the amount received to you in error.
  • (b) The amount received was unauthorised or fraudulently undertaken or induced.
  • (c) The amount received was received for activities that appear to have violated a law, this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, or any other agreement between you and Wise.
  • (d) The amount received is, for any reason, reversed by the sender or a payment provider.
  • (e) Any other error that may result in your Wise Profile being credited in circumstances where you are not the lawful recipient and/or lawfully entitled to retain the amount received.

You promise to repay Wise if you owe Wise money for any reason, including because of a chargeback, Reversal, deduction of fees, any other error, or any other action. If you owe any money to Wise, you must repay the amount owed immediately without any notice from us. We may send you reminders or take other actions to recover the amount owed from you, for example, we may use a debt collection service or take further legal actions. We may charge you for any costs we may incur as a result of these collection efforts. For more information, see “What happens if you owe us money” at section 24.11.

14.3 Payment order limits.

15. Paying for Your Money Transfer

15.1 How to pay for your Money Transfer. To pay for your Money Transfer, you need to access your Wise profile, by logging in on our Website or App or via an API Partner, and follow the steps provided.

15.2 Payment methods. You may be presented with one or more methods of paying for a Money Transfer. The number of payment methods made available to you will depend on a few factors including where you live and your verification status with us. We cannot guarantee the availability of a particular payment method and we may change or stop offering a payment method at any time without notice to you.

16. Processing your Money Transfer

16.1 When we will complete your Money Transfer. We will complete your Money Transfer once we have received your funds.

16.2 Guaranteed rates. We may provide you with a guaranteed foreign exchange rate for a period. We will notify you of the guaranteed rate and the period during which we are offering that rate (the “Guaranteed Period”) when you create your Money Transfer.

16.3 Guaranteed Periods are subject to the following conditions:

  • (a) The Guaranteed Period may be extended if your Money Transfer is created over the weekend or on a public holiday.
  • (b) We must receive sufficient funds from you during the Guaranteed Period to convert your funds at the guaranteed rate. You can use the Wise App or Website to see the status of the Money Transfer, including when we receive your funds. Wise is not responsible for the failure of a third party to send your funds to us in a timely manner.
  • (c) If we receive your funds after the Guaranteed Period, we will not be able to convert your money using the guaranteed rate and your transfer will become a non-guaranteed rate transfer. Accordingly, we may convert your money at the applicable exchange rate at the time we receive your money, or we may email you and ask you if you want to proceed with your transfer at the new exchange rate.
  • (d) If the Wise exchange rate changes by 5% or more during the Guaranteed Period, we can, at our discretion, suspend your transfer for a reasonable period or cancel your transfer and refund the money to you.
  • (e) For certain currencies, the guaranteed rate will only be offered after your identity has been verified by us.
  • (f) We may change these guaranteed rate conditions or suspend the guaranteed rate feature at any time.

16.4 The Wise exchange rates. We will confirm the available exchange rate (if applicable) for your Money Transfer:

  • (a) when you place your Money Transfer, if it is a guaranteed rate Money Transfer; or
  • (b) when we have received your payment, if it is a non-guaranteed rate Money Transfer.

16.5 When we receive your request. Your Money Transfer request may be subject to an applicable cut-off time. If this is the case, and your Money Transfer request is received after the applicable cut-off time on a Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day (e.g., a weekend or bank holiday), your Money Transfer will be deemed received on the following Business Day.

16.6 What happens after you have submitted your Money Transfer request. Once we have received your Money Transfer request, we will provide you with a unique transaction number. You should quote this number when communicating with us about a particular Money Transfer or other transaction.

16.7 Sending money using an email address. If you send money to a person using an email address which is not registered with us, the money will not be credited until the intended recipient has claimed the money by following the steps set out for them in an email that they will receive. Until that process is successfully completed, there is no relationship between us and the intended recipient and the money continues to belong to you. We will contact you for further instructions if the intended recipient does not claim the money by such time period as determined by us subject to applicable laws and regulations, and we may refund the money to you if the intended recipient does not claim the money or if they have failed our recipient checks within a reasonable period as determined by us, subject to applicable laws and regulations.

16.8 Delay in transfer. We may delay processing a Money Transfer in certain situations, including if we need to confirm that the transaction has been authorised by you, because of verification checks or due diligence reviews, or if you owe us money because other payments you received have been reversed (for example, because of a Chargeback or Reversal). Wise is not responsible for such delays, where we have acted reasonably.

16.9 Completion time of your Money Transfer. The estimated completion time of your Money Transfer will be provided to you when setting up your Money Transfer.

16.10 We will use reasonable efforts to ensure funds arrive at your recipient’s account within the timeframe provided. We will use reasonable efforts to ensure that the funds arrive in the recipient’s bank account or payment account within the notified timeframe provided to you. We do not have any control over the time it may take for the recipient’s bank or payment provider to credit and make available funds to the recipient.

16.11 Refusal of your Money Transfer. If we are unable to complete your Money Transfer, we will let you know and, when possible, the reasons for the refusal and an explanation of how to correct any factual errors. However, we are not required to notify you if such notification would be unlawful.

16.12 You may cancel your Money Transfer before your funds are converted. You may cancel your Money Transfer by following the instructions set out in our Help Centre. You cannot cancel your Money Transfer once your funds have been converted and transfer initiated. We will return the deposit to your bank account from which the transfer originated. In the event that we are unable to return the deposit, then we will contact you using the most current contact information that you have provided to us.

16.13 When will I be notified of my scheduled Money Transfer? If you have scheduled a Money Transfer in advance then we will notify you 24 hours before your upcoming Money Transfer, setting out the total fees and the estimated exchange rate for that Money Transfer. By scheduling a Money Transfer, you agree to Wise sending the funds using the exchange rate at any time on the scheduled date. If you have opted in to receiving confirmation emails, we will send you a Money Transfer receipt after successfully sending your scheduled Money Transfer.

16.14 You must ensure the information you provide to us is correct. You must make sure that the information you provide when setting up a Money Transfer is accurate. If we have processed your order in accordance with the information you have provided to us it will be considered correctly completed even if you have made a mistake.

16.15 What happens if you provide us with incorrect information? If you have provided incorrect information to us, we may, but are not required to, assist you in recovering your funds. We cannot guarantee that such efforts will be successful as they rely on the policies and practices of other banks and institutions. In addition, Wise may not be able to confirm that your recipient’s name and account number match, as the names and other information associated with third party accounts may not be known to Wise. This means that if you provide an incorrect account number, your funds will most likely go to the wrong account.

16.18 Finality. When you make a Money Transfer, the settlement and payout to the recipient are final and irrevocable unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or pursuant to applicable law.

24. Our responsibility for loss or damage

24.1 Unforeseeable loss or damage. We are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during your sign up process.

  • (c) You do not quickly notify us of security issues (e.g., loss of your password). You remain liable for losses incurred up to your notification to us.

In such a case you shall be solely liable for all losses; or
  • (e) You do not let us know about the unauthorised or incorrectly completed transaction as soon as practicable after receipt of a transaction notification alert for any unauthorised transaction. This is because the sooner you tell us about any unauthorised transaction or incorrectly executed transaction, the more likely we can properly investigate the transaction and take action to correct it. Whereas, the longer you take to tell us about any unauthorised or incorrectly executed transaction the less likely we can properly investigate the transaction and take action to correct it. Please keep in mind that we will only keep records of your transaction for as long as we are required under applicable law.

24.7 You are responsible for checking your Wise Profile regularly. We rely on you to regularly check the transactions history of your Wise Profile and to contact Customer Support​ immediately in case you have any questions or concerns.

  • (d) If the requested transaction is unauthorised as defined in this section of this Agreement.
  • (e) If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire, flood, or computer or communication failure) prevent the completion of the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
  • (f) Any other exception stated in this Agreement.

24.9 We are not liable for things which are outside of our control. We (and our affiliates) cannot be liable for our inability to deliver or delay because of things which are outside our control.

This provision will continue after our relationship ends.

24.11 What happens if you owe us money. In the event you are liable for any amounts owed to us for whatever reason, we may immediately deduct such amounts from the money received (if available). If there are insufficient funds to cover your liability, you agree to repay the outstanding amount to us immediately on demand along with any applicable fees and interest. If you do not repay the outstanding amount, then, without prejudice to any other rights we may have, we reserve the right to collect your debt to us by using any payments received for our Services in the future (such as to fund a Money Transfer), and otherwise you agree to reimburse us through other means. We may also recover amounts you owe us through other collection avenues, including, without limitation, using a debt collection agency. We may recover all reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.

24.12 Release.

27. General but important terms

27.1 No Third Party rights. This Agreement is between you and us. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement (for example in the App Store terms), no other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person to end or make any changes to this Agreement.

27.2 Assignment. You may not transfer, assign, mortgage, charge, subcontract, declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with any or all your rights and obligations under this Agreement (including the Wise Profile) without our prior written consent. We reserve the right to transfer, assign or novate this Agreement (including the Wise Profile) or any right or obligation under this Agreement at any time without your consent. This does not affect your rights to close your Wise Profile under section 8.

27.3 Severability. Each of the paragraphs of this Agreement operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

27.4 Enforcement. Even if we delay in enforcing this Agreement, we can still enforce it later. If we delay in asking you to do certain things or taking certain action, it will not prevent us from taking steps against you at a later date.

27.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes and extinguishes all previous agreements between you and Wise, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

27.6 Governing law. This Agreement is governed by Indonesia law. Any dispute between you and us in connection with the Services and/or this Agreement may be brought in the courts of Indonesia.
