The honest comparison
Banks rarely charge a visible conversion fee. They build a margin into the rate instead. Here’s how PayTribes compares with a typical bank wire.
| Compare | PayTribes | Typical bank wire |
|---|---|---|
| Exchange rate | Mid-market rate plus one fee from 0.4% | A 2 to 4% margin built into the rate |
| Speed | Under a minute in most corridors | 2 to 4 business days |
| Fees shown | Before you send, in full | Often only on your statement |
| Receiving money | Free on every plan | $15 to $30 per incoming wire |
| Rate locks | 24 hours, on any of 38 pairs | Rarely available to SMEs |
| Approvals | Rules by amount, currency and recipient | Manual sign-off at the branch |
| Tracking | Live status and proof of payment | Call the bank and wait |
| Accounting | Syncs with the invoice attached | Manual export and matching |
