Wise charges $8 for $1000 transfer. Some of that is an ACH fee that is probably difficult to reduce.

Strike claims no fees are charged.




I'm talking about from a technical perspective.

ACH is roughly free - it costs about $0.0033 to the depository institution in bulk (citation available on request) - which makes sense as Strike also allows you to deposit via ACH in the US.

Their fees are likely dominated by risk, compliance and regulatory.

Obviously Strike's service isn't costless to operate so they're subsidizing their operations via investment.
