Wire Transfer is a type of electronic payment service that enables the transfer of funds from one bank account to another. It is a secure and efficient way for individuals and businesses to send and receive money. Wire transfers are typically used for large-scale payments, such as international payments, and are often used in place of checks or cash. Wire transfers are typically initiated by the sender, who provides the recipient's bank account information to their own bank. The sender's bank then sends a message to the recipient's bank, which then credits the recipient's account with the funds. The process is usually completed within one business day. Wire transfers are subject to various regulations, including anti-money laundering laws, and are subject to fees charged by the banks involved. Banks may also require additional information from the sender, such as proof of identity, before processing the transfer. Companies in the Wire Transfer market include banks, money transfer services, and payment processors. Examples include Bank of America, Western Union, PayPal, and MoneyGram. Show Less Read more
