NY BoA domestic and international wire fees (Niagara Falls) — sourced 2026

By Pablo Diaz · I left BoA after years as a customer. Read the full story →

BoA publishes most fees. The CFPB has documented how some of them have been applied historically. Both inform the decision a Niagara Falls customer makes about whether to stay or move. Sources cited at the source.

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 Niagara Falls 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.
