Sending from AUD
How can I pay for my transfer from AUD?
There are 5 ways to send money from AUD:
Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS)
How much can I send?
Bank transfers – up to 1.8 million AUD (your bank might have their own limits)
Card – up to 18,000 AUD
PayID – up to 50,000 AUD
RTGS – no limit
Wise Balance – up to 5 million AUD
Where can I send from?
You can only send AUD to Wise from a bank account in your name within Australia. You can’t send AUD by Swift.
If you are sending money to Wise with Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS), also known as Local or Domestic Telegraphic Transfer, check that the beneficiary details include the BSB code 774001 or 802985. RTGS transactions of any amount (subjected to your sender bank’s limit) can be accepted for account details with BSB code 774001. On the other hand, account details with BSB code 802985 can accept RTGS transactions that are more than 50,000 AUD.
Always double-check the correct account details.
How long does it usually take for the money to arrive?
It usually takes 0–2 working days for your money to get to Wise, depending on how you pay for your transfer. Then, we convert it and send it out. Conversion can take up to 2 working days.
Check the guide for the currency you’re sending to for an estimate on how long it will take to arrive in your recipient’s account after we send it out.
