Wise Business Card Review: A Great Card for Singapore Companies?

Sanjeed V K

Singapore’s pro-business setup makes it easy to start and scale, but if you pay for overseas SaaS (Software as a Service), fly for work, or have remote teams, managing card spend in multiple currencies can become complicated quickly.

The Wise Business account keeps it simple.

Hold and convert 40+ currencies, spend in 150+ countries, and avoid hidden exchange rate markups thanks to mid-market exchange rates and transparent conversion fees¹.

This Wise Business Card review covers how the card works, its features for team control, fees, who it’s best suited for, and the alternatives worth considering in Singapore.

How the Wise Business Card works in Singapore

The Wise Business Card is a debit card that comes in both physical and virtual forms². It’s linked directly to your Wise Business account, so every payment draws from the currencies you hold in your Wise account.

  • If you already hold a currency, such as USD, for a software subscription, the card will spend that currency directly.
  • If you don’t hold the currency, Wise automatically converts the amount needed at the mid-market exchange rate, adding a small conversion fee (starting from 0.26%, which varies by route).

Unlike traditional business debit or credit cards, there’s no extra foreign transaction fee layered on top of the conversion. The only fee you’ll pay is the transparent conversion cost.

To unlock the full feature set, including the ability to receive payments with local account details in 8+ currencies, Singapore companies pay a one-time setup fee of SGD 99. There are no ongoing monthly account fees.


Key Wise Business Card features for Singapore SMEs

The Wise Business Card is built to keep company spending simple, transparent, and easy to track. Here are the main features²:

  • Physical and virtual cards: Get a physical card for in-store payments, and create virtual cards instantly for secure online transactions. You can also add them to Apple Pay or Google Pay for contactless use.
  • Global acceptance: Spend in 40+ currencies across 150+ countries without hidden markups. The card automatically uses the currencies you hold in your account or converts at the mid-market rate.
  • Real-time spend alerts: Every transaction triggers an instant notification in the Wise app, helping you track spending as it happens.
  • Tight controls: Approve payments, set custom limits per card, and freeze/unfreeze cards with a tap if they’re lost or stolen.
  • Team cards: The first card is free. Extra cards for employees cost just SGD 4 each, one-time. Replacement cards are also SGD 4, and optional express delivery starts from SGD 16.
  • ATM withdrawals: 2 free withdrawals/month per account, provided your monthly total is ≤ SGD 350. 1.5 SGD + 1.75% after that.
  • Transparent foreign exchange fees: Conversions start at 0.26% and vary by route — always at the mid-market exchange rate, with no hidden markup.

Managing team spending with Wise Business cards

For many Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), employee expenses are a headache: staff use personal cards, submit late claims, and finance teams scramble to reconcile messy receipts.

The Wise Business Card makes this cleaner by giving each team member their own debit card, tied directly to your Wise Business account.
