Yes, Lili supports both inbound and outbound international wire transfers, and the feature is open to 27 countries.
This feature is available for all Lili customers that have a registered business (except for sole prop and sole prop DBAs) regardless of the account plan. International wires can be sent only in U.S. dollars, but can be received in most foreign currencies (including all major currencies). The funds are automatically converted to USD at a FX spot rate before the funds hit your account. To avoid currency conversion costs, consider asking your payer to send the wire in US dollars.
The fee for international wire transfers is:
- $25 for an Outbound wire transfer
- $15 for an Inbound wire transfer
For outbound wires, the receiving financial institution may charge an additional fee for the inbound processing of the wire transaction. For inbound wires, the net transaction amount received (in addition to the fees charged by Lili) may be the amount after additional processing fees charged by other banks involved in the wire transfer.
For details about the wire transfer limits (inbound and outbound), please see the Sunrise Banks Account Agreement, Section 3.7 Transaction Limits.
