Common Wise Issues During Outages

Transfer delays

International transfers may take longer than estimated, pending transfers may be stuck, or delivery times may be significantly extended.

Payment failures

Users may be unable to add money to their Wise account, card payments may fail, or transfers may be rejected.

App and website not loading

The Wise app may crash, fail to load account details, or the website may show error pages during outages.

Currency conversion issues

Exchange rates may not load, currency conversions may fail, or rate locks may not process correctly.

Troubleshooting Steps Before You Assume Wise Is Down

  1. 1

    Check your transfer status in the app

    Open the Wise app and check the detailed status of your transfer—it may show specific reasons for any delays.

  2. 2

    Verify your payment method

    Ensure your bank account or card is properly linked and has sufficient funds for the transfer amount plus fees.

  3. 3

    Check recipient details

    Verify the recipient's bank details are correct—incorrect information can cause transfers to be held or returned.

  4. 4

    Review verification requirements

    Some transfers require additional verification. Check if Wise is requesting documents or additional information.

  5. 5

    Try the web version

    If the app isn't working, try accessing your Wise account through the website at wise.com.
