Stripe supports incoming wire transfers as a payment method, primarily for B2B and high-ticket transactions. Fees vary by region — typically a flat $1–$8 per incoming wire — but Stripe doesn’t publicly list wire fees on most pricing pages because they’re negotiated per merchant.

Frequently asked questions

When should I take wire transfer instead of ACH?
For very high-ticket international transactions where settlement speed matters — wires settle same-day to next-day vs ACH 3–5 business days. Wires are also irreversible (no return-window), which is valuable for high-ticket sales. The flat fee structure means wires beat cards for any transaction over $300 or so.
