The partnership will enable the bank’s customers to transact from the UK to the 35 currencies available in the TransferWise app.
Starling Bank chief platform officer Megan Caywood said: “Starling Bank is delighted to announce our partnership with Transferwise, our first Marketplace partner. TransferWise’s technology and business model have been transformational for millions of people sending money abroad and transferring currencies.
“They ensure convenience, offer the real exchange rate, and put the customer first. These are all values that are important to Starling and our partnership signifies a vital step for UK banking customers.”

The integration makes it super easy for Starling customers to access the TransferWise service.”
