How to transfer in foreign currency and save on fees and exchange rate with TransferWise?

1. Always transfer USD to EUR, so we get the market exchange rate of TransferWise, which is REAL time and ALWAYS the best.
2. If you transfer USD to USD, then the receiving bank will use their own exchange rate. In most cases, it is way below market.  In addition, if the receiving bank receives the funds in foreign currency, they usually charge additional 0.1% conversion rate.  By using TransferWise, GAIN will be in both exchange rate + avoiding the conversion rate of the recipient’s bank.
3. To make it better, you can schedule transfer, DO NOT CONFIRM, and from that point, you will have about 36 hours (it changes based on currency/country) to CONFIRM the transfer. In case, the foreign exchange rate gets better, you can cancel that pending transfer, and create new one.  The new one will have better rate.

TransferWise connects great with Quickbooks in case you need to manage multiple bank accounts. For example, if you have USD and EURO balances in Quickbooks and want to sync with QB. Go to Quickbooks >> Banking >> Link Account >> Search for Transfewise. Add 1 by 1 for both USD and EURO accounts. It is much easier and better the PayPal Quickbooks integration for example.
