Wise Aug 25

From the payer's perspective, Wise is a direct bank transfer.

Whatever is cheaper Aug 25

However, given that I live in Brasil, every payment method bites its (not so) fair share. There's no way to run.

Don't want to pay to be paid Aug 25

Whichever method does not require me to pay to receive my pay. The client should pay transfer costs.

It depends Aug 25

If the client resides within the EU I, of course, prefer a bank transfer. If the customer is located in any other part of the globe, I prefer PayPal, even more so because I have both EUR and USD accounts, thus saving the conversion fee.

others Aug 25

I prefer to be paid through cryptocurrency, because it is fast, less cost and can be used in many countries.

PayPal is different from Wise Aug 25

PayPal should not be categorized with Wise. It is the least effective payout method.
