SEPA Payments

Hi, a quick question if I may.

 

My bank in France only accepts payments via SEPA and not SWIFT. What can I do? I would Ideally like  a bank-to-bank payment arrangement rather than via Paypal or a third party.

 

Any suggestions welcome.

 

Thanks, Andrew

Hello, I have the exact same question. My bank only accept SEPA payments (so only transfers from EU banks). I was wondering if the Direct to Local Bank use a SEPA intermediate to send the money to local bank, but couldn't find an straight answer anywhere. Can someone from support help me please? Or even better, answer directly in this topic so others freelancers with the same question can find the information!

Hi Federico,

 

Thank you for reaching out and raising this query about being able to add a payment method that supports SEPA transfers. Please allow me to clarify this. Please know that 'Direct to local bank' payment methods indeed use SEPA, and it should be the one that you use. On the other hand, 'Wire Transfer' payment methods use the SWIFT network.
 
You can also refer to this help article, where you will find a ton of information about how to manage your payments.
