Wise (mid-market)

Wise typically delivers the highest amount of INR for a given USD input, because it charges a transparent, percentage-based fee on top of the real interbank rate. For marketplace sellers, Payoneer remains very convenient despite a slightly higher all-in cost; for consumer checkout PayPal offers the deepest brand recognition.
