How to sync your contacts to find friends on Wise

You can find your friends on your Recipients tab, when sending money, or in your settings under Security and privacy we’ll simply show you an option to Sync your contacts — that’s it! 

You can remain private from others finding you, and still have the convenience of sending money to your friends. Or you can let people find you.

For now, you can only Sync your contacts on your Wise app.

What if I can’t find my friend?

If you can’t add someone to your Contacts list, check that:

  • the phone number on their Wise account is right, and they’ve verified it

  • the phone number on their Wise account matches what you have in your phone’s contacts

  • they have turned on letting people find them

  • they have at least one balance open — this can be in any currency

  • the e-mail address on their Wise account is right and they've verified it

Are there any restrictions?

Right now, you can send money to all currencies that Wise supports.

You can’t send to business accounts at the moment.

Can I stop people from finding me and sending me money?

You can find out if your account is discoverable in your privacy settings. 

From there, you can also enable or disable the option to be discoverable by email, phone or your Wisetag.
