The payer must now make a bank transfer to the details provided ensuring the payment ID is quoted as the payment reference.

Please note, Flywire and partners have bank accounts all over the world so the beneficiary address is likely to be in the region your payment is coming from, rather than UK.

Please be aware, Flywire is not part of the UK's 'Confirmation of Payee' scheme. Payers making UK domestic bank transfers using their banking app are likely to receive a notification that the payer's name cannot be verified. This is expected, please ensure the account details are correct and proceed to pay.
