To avoid being in a difficult financial situation due to unforeseen wait times in your Wise transfers in the future, consider the following steps:

• Plan for delays by allocating buffer time, especially for critical payments, and track your transfer's progress using the Wise app or website.

• Choose the right payment method, prioritizing speed over potential cost savings, with Wise Borderless account balances being the quickest option.

• If speed is crucial, avoid weekend transfers and aim for weekdays.

• Communicate with Wise customer support for large or urgent transfers to inquire about potential delays or verification steps.

• Explore alternatives for time-critical transfers, such as international money transfer services specializing in same-day or next-day delivery.
