Hello all,
I'm positing this here so that it might help anyone else searching for an answer about AMP accounts and Transferwise.
I live in New Zealand and wanted to know whether I could fund my AMP U.S. account (not a Global account) with USD via ACH using Transferwise.
The answer from AMP is 'yes', and you can also withdraw from your AMP U.S. account using ACH to Transferwise.
This means a few things for non-US residents who have a AMP U.S. account:
- You can use Transferwise's very competitive exchange rates to convert your currency to USD before funding your AMP U.S. account
- You can avoid your bank's wire fee by using ACH to fund
- You don't need to pay US$30 for each wire withdrawal from AMP
- You can use Transferwise's exchange rates to convert your withdrawals to your own currency before transferring to your personal bank account.
All in all, it means $$ saved!
Cheers
