I had my card replaced recently and it’s not that yet. I don’t know if we’ll ever get it
Never. They should double down on the white one. That one is lovely.
Next plastic card design will be same as new virtual ones (focusing on Wise responses on social channels)
This is cool. Swift is a messaing app like whatsapp or imessage, but a bit more archaic.
When a bank sends a Swift message saying “customer X wants to transfer £50 from UK to customer Y’s bank P in country India” Swift does not handle the transfer, but enables the bank to tell someone to handle it.
According to this, it means Wise can now handle these transfers.
Because every bank uses Swift anyway, this enables Wise to be an almost drag-and-drop replacement in their systems to potentially get much cheaper transfers, while giving Wise much broader market share and more profit
That’s great for the banks. Anyone want to place bets on whether they will pass on the savings to their customers
I do prefer the old design
Yeah, looks cheap. Have ordered a replacement card anyway.
I don’t know what the two folks above me are on about, because the new design is a lot better IMO!
#teamecowhite tho. That card is the best. A shame they’ve stopped doing them.
