## Brand context
international account for sending, spending and converting money like a local

Wise builds an international money transfer and multi-currency account for people and businesses sending, receiving, spending, and converting money across borders, delivering secure transfers to 140+ countries with transparent pricing, no hidden exchange-rate markups, and delivery for many transfers in under 20 seconds. Its differentiator is the use of the mid-market rate with predictable, upfront fees and safeguarded customer funds held separately under regulatory requirements, so you know what your recipient will get.

Audiences:
- Consumers sending money abroad to family and friends (e.g., remittances across 140+ countries)
- Start-ups and scale-ups managing cross-border team and vendor payments
- Banks, financial institutions, and enterprises that want to integrate money movement into their own products

Counts reflect the canonical evidence-store snapshot, not invented adoption or asset totals. Screen imagery is delivered through authenticated, metered MCP calls; it is not distributed on public pages.

## Retrieval
Ask the design.live MCP for the project brief, constraints, and desired Wise qualities. It returns ranked evidence and an agent-ready implementation plan; do not copy a source screen wholesale.
