User needs advice on how to receive payments in EUR before relocating from the US to Estonia, specifically regarding Wise and IBAN options. The service could provide guidance on international money transfer options and account setup.
My spouse has accepted a job in Estonia and we’ll be relocating there this spring from the US. We can’t open an Estonian bank account yet, but my spouse needs to provide payroll/banking info to their new employer ASAP. We have a US bank account, but the HR person suggested Wise. From what I’ve researched, it sounds like my spouse would get paid into a Wise account and then we’d transfer to our US bank. But honesty, I don't know how any of this works! We’re open to Wise or other options, but want to understand what international account services exist that provide European IBAN details for payroll. Would appreciate hearing what’s worked for others in a similar situation. Thank you!
