Harnessing the power of APIs to power instant [...]
summary
Wise Platform exposes the same API that powers wise.com to embed instant cross-border payments into banks and apps, serving 10 million active customers, 70+ destination countries and saving customers £1.5bn in fees in one year. The send-money flow uses three API calls—quote, create recipient, create transfer—plus dynamic forms (server-driven fields), three validation layers (sanity, async endpoint lookups, server-side checks) and delivery estimates from four data signals. Partners get webhooks, receipts and reports; integrations with >80 partners (Bank Mandiri, MOX, N26) cut contacts by ~80%.
