Wise Platform
"Payments infrastructure to power the world's money" - banks, financial institutions and enterprises can plug into Wise's network to offer cross-border payment, card issuing, and multi-currency account capabilities. [1]
Wise Platform is a REST API that lets banks, fintechs, and enterprises embed cross-border payments, FX conversion, multi-currency balances, and white-label card issuance into their own products, covering payouts to 70+ countries on local rails across a network spanning 160+ countries. Pricing is usage-based with published rates, though full Platform API access requires a sales onboarding process and enterprise tiers are available with customized per-route pricing. The API supports OAuth2, API key, and mTLS auth, with idempotency, webhooks, and a sandbox included. Wise holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS certifications and operates under 80+ regulatory licenses across 17 jurisdictions, with customers including Morgan Stanley, Nubank, Monzo, Google Pay, and Ramp.
