THE WISE STORY
How it all began
Like a lot of good stories, this one starts with two friends (and they’re both from Estonia!)
Taavet was the first employee at Skype and got paid in euros. But he lived in London and needed pounds to pay the bills.
Kristo worked for Deloitte and lived in London. He got paid in pounds. But he had a mortgage back in Estonia. And he needed to pay that in euros.
Every month they moved their money abroad through banks. It was wasting them time and costing them money. So they invented a beautifully simple workaround.
Wise today
Over 15.6 million active personal and business customers now use Wise to move more than £142 billion across borders each quarter, and saved £2 billion compared to banks over the past year.
We now have over 8,000 people working in 11 key locations around the world. Apart from all that, not too much has changed.
We’re not done yet
We’re really just at the beginning of our story and we’re growing at an incredible pace. We won’t stop until everyone, everywhere can seamlessly manage the world's money.
There’s still heaps to do and we can’t do it alone.
Make a Wise move.
