What it is

Wise may amend the Customer Agreement by posting updated terms on its website or notifying users by email, with changes taking effect 30 days after notice unless regulatory requirements require immediate effect; continued use of services after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a unilateral amendment mechanism that allows Wise to modify material contract terms with 30 days notice in most circumstances. Continued use of services after the effective date constitutes acceptance, meaning users who do not close their accounts before the effective date are contractually bound by the updated terms.

Interpretive note: The specific notice mechanism and whether email notification is mandatory or optional relative to website posting is not fully determinable from the truncated document text.

The updated terms now authorize Wise to accept incoming funds via FedNow, a new instant payment service. The agreement states that FedNow transactions are processed in real time and generally cannot be canceled or reversed once completed, distinguishing them from traditional transfers that may have reversal windows. The terms also establish that Wise may decline any incoming FedNow transaction at its discretion where required for security, compliance, or operational reasons, without specifying advance notice or appeal procedures. Users receiving FedNow payments should understand that such transfers become final immediately upon completion.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Regulation E requires that consumers receive at least 21 days advance notice before the effective date of a change in terms that would result in increased fees, increased liability, fewer types of available EFTs, or stricter limitations, which interacts with this 30-day notice provision. The FTC Act's prohibition on unfair or deceptive practices applies to how material changes are communicated and whether the notice mechanism is adequate for consumer understanding. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The 'continued use constitutes acceptance' mechanism is standard in consumer agreements but may face challenge if applied to materially adverse amendments without affirmative consent, particularly for changes that affect fee structures or arbitration terms. The exception for immediate changes due to regulatory requirements provides Wise flexibility to modify terms without the standard notice period. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: Some states impose stricter requirements on how material amendments to consumer financial service agreements must be disclosed, particularly California and New York. Amendments that affect arbitration terms may require separate analysis under applicable arbitration law. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Business customers with API integrations or platform dependencies should establish processes to monitor Wise agreement updates, as changes to service terms, fees, or acceptable use provisions could affect operational workflows without requiring explicit re-consent. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should implement a monitoring process for Wise agreement updates and assess each amendment against applicable Regulation E notice requirements and any material impact on user rights. Particular attention should be given to amendments that affect fee schedules, arbitration terms, or account suspension procedures.
