Thanks, we'll speak with Barclays then :)

We use Wise but their USD accounts are US-domiciled. So we have 3 options: - Continue paying out to Wise and incur an additional 1% fee (~$30k per year) - Use Stripe for currency conversion which is additional 2% fee (~$60k per year - Find a UK-domiciled USD account to pay out to. Might be possible - no idea really. Need to look into it.

Same here. This is a massive dent in any of our remaining profit. Realistically we'll need to look to leave

"UK businesses who are paying out in USD to a US-domiciled bank account will now incur a 1% fee, with a minimum fee of US$2.50."

So if we get paid out a USD payment, into a USD account. We get charged just because we're registered in the UK? That's a huge impact on our business.

Thanks for sharing. We've just spent the last hour debugging our website, thinking we had issues. This explains it.

Convertkit is a front-end for Sendgrid, so possibly they use the same format as them?
