Domestic and international wire fees

Bank of America wire transfer fees per their published schedule: roughly $30 per outgoing domestic wire and $45 per outgoing international wire. Incoming wires typically run $15. For a Escondido business that sends a handful of vendor wires per month, this adds up to several hundred dollars annually. Mercury offers free domestic wires on most plans; RHO offers free outgoing wires on most tiers. If wire volume is meaningful for your business, the fee differential alone often justifies switching.
