Wise and Google Join Forces to Make International Payments More Accessible
Wise will be joining Google’s new remittance experience as one of the key providers. Consumers in the U.S. will soon be able to access Wise’s services, powered by Wise Platform, Wise’s global infrastructure for banks and enterprises, on Google Wallet online or by searching for select currency exchange rates on Google Search. This feature will be rolled out as a test to Google users in the U.S.
The remittance experience will allow those looking on Google for international payment solutions on high-demand routes from USD to INR, PHP, MXN and BRL, to compare and send money via select providers including Wise. Consumers will clearly see the fees and transaction speeds offered by each provider for a transparent, convenient experience.
Lauren Langbridge, Commercial Director for Wise Platform, said: “We’re thrilled to collaborate with Google in helping to bring this new remittance experience to life. Sending money abroad is a routine necessity for millions of people and businesses, but it’s not always easy for customers to find the right provider. By joining forces with Google, Wise will enable fast, reliable international payments for more users across the U.S., and empower everyday people to make the best choice based on their needs.”
Wise Platform powers the international payments experience for the world’s leading banks, financial institutions, and digital platforms, including Morgan Stanley, Standard Chartered, Brex and Ramp.
Over the past 14 years, Wise has been singularly focused on building the network for the world’s money by solving the complexities of moving and managing money across borders. As more Americans seek easy and fast ways to send money internationally, Google’s partnership with Wise Platform is a testament to the speed, scale and reliability of the infrastructure and network Wise has built over the last decade.
