Frequently asked questions
How much does Wise charge to send CA currency?
Sending CA currency via Wise typically costs about 0.7% plus a fixed fee of 2.2 for most routes. Your exact fee depends on the destination currency and payment method.
Does Wise add a markup to the exchange rate?
Wise uses the mid-market exchange rate and builds its margin into the fee shown here rather than hiding it in the rate. This is why Wise is often cheaper than banks for international transfers.
Why does my Wise fee differ from this calculator?
Wise prices every currency route individually. The figure here is a typical CA estimate — your exact fee depends on the destination currency, the amount, and how you pay (bank transfer is cheapest).
Does Wise refund its fee if a transfer is cancelled?
No. If you cancel a transfer after it's been charged or a recipient returns money, Wise does not refund the original transfer fee — you'd pay a new fee to send it again.
Is this Wise CA calculator affiliated with Wise?
No. It's an independent tool from Fee Calculator Hub. Wise's official pricing is a JS-rendered page, so we show approximate documented rates and recommend confirming at wise.com/pricing.
Are there weekend FX mark-ups on Wise?
Yes. When markets are closed on weekends, Wise may apply a small temporary exchange-rate margin. This isn't a fixed fee you'd see here, but it can slightly increase the real cost.
