Wire Transfers

Here is an important note to keep in mind when wiring money:

You usually get three modes of handling banking fees: "our" "shared" or "bent". Please use "our" to indicate that the banking fees are not taken off the actual amount you are transferring. Our bank does not charge for incoming wires but the referrence bank you are using may do so along the way.
