STEP 01Hold or convert money in Wise
Convert your home currency to the exchange's deposit currency at the mid-market rate (0.3–1% fee).

Confirm Wise allows crypto-exchange transfers from your region and that the exchange accepts third-party-bank deposits in your name.
STEP 03Send a local transfer to the exchange
Use the exchange's IBAN/account details and reference code — it's a normal SEPA/FPS/ACH transfer from Wise's side.
STEP 04Trade once credited
Funds typically arrive in minutes (instant rails) to 1–2 days.

Not directly — Wise doesn't sell crypto. You can use Wise to fund a crypto exchange by bank transfer where Wise's policy allows it, which varies by country. Check Wise's acceptable-use policy for your region first.
