I've had the same (mostly) great experience with them.

My only issues with TransferWise have been having to ask recipients for their full addresses and then manually having to translate address schemes into something that fits in the boxes TransferWise provides in their forms. Sometimes things don't map over 1-to-1 (some Japanese and Taiwanese addresses, for example). I've also found that some Japanese banks only have one branch without a name and Transferwise requires a branch name. I eventually figured things out by researching the branch number online though.

All minor gripes though. Transferwise has let my business operate smoothly and make connections to vendors that would otherwise be cost-prohibitive to pay.



Hey kernelbugs, I work at TransferWise and would love to learn a little more about the issues you face with our address forms (it could be due to the fact that payment system limitations often lead to field limitation on our side). Hopefully I can help you figure out a way to make your life using our product easier as well. Could you please send me an email to tim@transferwise.com?
