How to Send Money to Your Interactive Broker's account for free

Somebody, lead me to send money from TransferWise to IB for now.
Should I choose ‘Sending to someone else’ or ‘Buisiness/Charity’ by TW? What the digits I must to point and where if my IB account is U1234567 at example? Screenshot’s appreciated!
Should I ask form of recievement in Interactive Brokers as Bank wire? THANK YOU!

I think it has to be your personal account to send money into IB, so I don’t believe you can do it via Transferwise.

Why not do it directly from your bank in CHF? It is free.

Sorry to come in at this old thread - it seems IB changed banks to JPM for USD.
I’ve been paining myself where to find this ’ Search for a financial institutions postal account’ in the UI, maybe you could help?

Hedghog ain’t on here no more :pensive:
I believe this post was about an account in Switzerland to transfer CHF to IB fo free.
For USD transfers to IB it was always a wire transfer to JPM (or Citi) in USofA. (Involves a minor cost, approx. $10-$15).

Oh… I’m sorry to hear, from the posts, his contribution was massive.

Thanks a lot - the costs are not that crazy, I’m just a bit surprised - I thought transferring USD to them would be the easiest of all for some reason.
And its always unhappy to find out it could have been done for free after you already paid 15 CHF 12 times :slight_smile:

I’ll wait until I’ll have a larger pile of USD then.
