We’re making a positive, irreversible change in the world of finance. Together.

For too long, we’ve been overcharged and underserved by the masters of our money. On every continent, people are cornered by a system built by big banks and old financial institutions to serve their own interests. The house always wins and you don’t even know how. And for people moving money across borders, they’ve simply had no option but to pay the price. Not fair.

We power money for people and businesses – for sending currencies, wherever, whenever. We are building a fair financial system, built for global lives.

We’re making a positive, irreversible change in the world of finance. Together. TransferWise is built by a global team. Every morning, people from over 50 nationals log in to make TransferWise hum. We’re just regular people. But we’ve decided to put customers first and get stuff done, without unnecessary drama. It’s the only way to make sure we’re changing the world.

TransferWise is made of people who care deeply about our mission, get stuff done, put customers first and don’t create unnecessary drama. Those are the found things we call our values. Our roots.

Let’s not get all high and mighty though – we’re normal people, and none of us have special superpowers. In fact, we’re powerful together because of what we don’t have – corporate mindsets, fear, ego, hidden agendas. Those are all pretty normal, too, if you think about it. There are literally billions of people on earth who don’t think in a corporate way. We all face friends who don’t let fears get the better of them. Or create drama with hidden agendas. Good stuff, normal stuff.

    Supportive Culture

    Family Friendly

    Overall great company to work for: supportive, smart and outstanding colleagues, lots of nice benefits, opportunities to grow and self-realize, lots of challenges on a daily basis. However, I was fired by my male team-lead in the end of the probations period (4 month in Estonia) without any reasonable explanation, which makes me only wonder why, as I worked very hard and achieved a lot… Also, in my case contrary to the company’s culture there was micromanagement from my team-lead on a daily basis and he didn’t allow me to do things my way, only his way was allowed… Have been depressed for over a month because of such treatment… However, it does seem, that I was really unlucky with the team-lead.

  2. Equal Pay

    Career Advancement

    Supportive Culture

    Family Friendly

    Very supportive and encouraging environment to work in. Career advancement/changing is quite easy to achieve as there are many on offer.
    Being a soon-to-be mother in the office, I feel well taken care of and have all the necessary benefits to take care of myself as well. One very good benefit being the possibilty to be sick without losing the salary: nobody has to come to work sick and affect others – often an issue with other companies in Estonia since the frst 3 days are not covered by the government.

  3. Equal Pay

    Career Advancement

    Supportive Culture

    Family Friendly

    Difficult organisation for a woman. Would only recommend to those okay with sexist jokes and being treated as a second-class citizen. Slightly better in London than the Eastern European offices.
