When Snow Globe Queen Leah Andrews started fulfilling international orders, she didn’t realize how bank fees and exchange rates would vary: [Leah] It was quite a shock to see how much I was losing based on what I thought that rate would be that would come through.

[NPM Voice Talent] This message comes from NPR sponsor, WISE, helping millions of people around the world send and receive money internationally. Australian business owner Leah Andrews, also known as “the Queen of Snow Globes,” shares how she began using WISE: [Leah] Snow globes are quite a iconic product in the states and not so much here. So when I started getting all of these requests from the states, and I started getting payment from them into my Australian account; I had no idea how much the exchange rate would be affected by doing business through “normal” channels. It was quite a shock to see how much I was losing based on what I thought that rate would be that would come through. So Wise has been, frankly, a godsend to me because of the nature of doing business internationally.
