What does my international payment status mean?

Check if an international transfer has gone through by clicking on the payment in your feed. This is what the different messages mean:

Processing

Wise has got your GBP payment, and is looking at it now.

Converting

Wise has just converted your GBP payment into the local currency, so it’s ready to send.

Charged back

The payment has been recalled.

Cancelled

We couldn’t send the payment to Wise. You won't have been charged, and you'll need to make a new payment.
