What is a wire transfer?
Wire transfers send money electronically through wire networks, such as SWIFT and FEDWIRE. They are one of the most popular ways to move money from one bank account worldwide. However, they can cost arm and leg in fees, and usually take around 5 business days to process. The best way to avoid wire transfers and their fees is to securely send money online.
What is a bank wire fee?
Regardless of how much you send by wire transfer, banks will always charge you a minimum fee. Along with this there is a handling fee - the more banks that handle your transfer, the more it costs you. When wiring money overseas, banks charge poor foreign exchange rates to profit on your payment. And it's not just the person sending a wire transfer that pays these unnecessary fees. Some banks may charge the receiver a fee too, especially for an international transfer.
