Wise Business

Data verified on unchanged since the sources
Worth it if you pay many suppliers abroad: interbank rate with a 0.43-0.71% markup, dedicated IBANs in nine countries and batch payments of up to 1,000 recipients.
Avoid it if you need crypto or human support: there are no crypto features here, support is self-service only and funds stay in safeguarding.
Wise Business is a multi-currency EMI account offering the mid-market rate from 0.33%, support for 48 currencies, batch payments of up to 1,000 recipients and volume discounts. The downside is the lack of any crypto features and an opaque compliance approach, with support limited to self-service.

Verdict
Supervised by FCA and FinCEN, Wise Business offers the mid-market rate from 0.33%, 48 currencies and batch payments of up to 1,000 recipients, with FX transparency as its strength supporting the high rating. Protection is held back by a compliance approach described as opaque and support limited to self-service; funds remain in safeguarding.
On this lens Wise Business offers little: no crypto features, full KYC, a custodial account and average privacy. Cost transparency doesn't translate into control of funds or resistance to de-risking; it's an excellent multi-currency payments tool, not a sovereignty one.
