What is the best EMI alternative to Wise?

[CoinMaster]

Looking for an alternative to Wise, I read lot's here but would like to have a good one for 30K euro keeping there??

 

[clemens]

How about Zen.com or Airwallex ?

 

[JohnnyDoe]

Anything is better than Wise, but you shouldn’t keep any money in a bank/emi. Only the cash you need for short term expenses.

 

[CoinMaster]

okay, where would you stash your money then ? It is in Wise right now, so can't get it out to crypto from there?

Open an account with an exchange with a personal iban (SwissBorg, crypto.com, Nexo etc.) and transfer fiat to it.

 

[ABCZYX]

If you wan tto buy crypto (BTC) anonymously, you can use Hodlhodl and pay with wise directly, so no need for an additional EMI.

Open an account with an exchange with a personal iban (SwissBorg, crypto.com, Nexo etc.) and transfer fiat to it.

That's the worse advice ever. Everybody in crypto knows that you should never keep your money in exchanges. Not your keys, not your crypto. Same goes with cash. A year ago you would have advised to put your money on FTX?

never had an issue with WISE. Have transferred 100k+ with no hassle on personal account.
not sure why WISE is getting a bad wrap here sometimes.
The other EMI´s are not as big

Would you run the same strategy, for example, with Kraken? And why do you think that a crypto exchange is safer to have FIAT in than, for example, an EMI (Electronic Money Institution)?

I didn’t mean that you should leave fiat on an exchange. Using an exchange offering a personal iban is a way to buy crypto from banks that are against it, as they see the fiat transfer just as a balance transfer to your own account. You should never leave any fiat or crypto in an exchange: once fiat has arrived, buy whatever crypto you like and move it to your cold wallet.
Don’t think that USDT is any safer than USD fiat though, as it is essentially the same as having deposited USD with Deltec.

Come back for me? can you be specific please?

I already received the transfer 5 months ago. No Issues. I have since moved it again, no issues.

I already received the transfer 5 months ago. No Issues. I have since moved it again, no issues. If they were to freeze, it would have been done 24 hours after it arrived. I have more issues with my bank, than with an EMI such as WISE

 

[Alexmorgan]

Not wise

It was Mercury and im fully using mercury

Thanks but none of these seem to offer multicurrency personal account like Wise do.

 

[JohnLocke]

No, Wise is quite unique in terms of their simple and easy user interface as well as the many currencies they offer.
