Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose my data when switching from PayPal?

No, most services allow you to export your data before closing your account. Follow the steps in our migration guide to safely transfer all your data to Wise.

Is Wise really more private than PayPal?

Absolutely! We recommend running both services in parallel during the transition period to ensure everything is set up correctly before fully switching over.
