Receipts
Notifications

HCB has a few ways for you to upload receipts for your transactions: on the website, text messages, and email. When going through your emails, it can be difficult to remember if you've already uploaded a receipt. 🤔

To help you out, we've added a small indicator to emails that automatically updates with the status of your transaction. If you've already uploaded a receipt, you'll see a green indicator letting you know, and if not, you'll see a red button that links directly to the receipt upload page!

We hope this helps you with uploading your receipts!

💰 Send money internationally with Wise

November 4, 2025

New Feature
Transfers

Last year, HCB launched wire transfers, a built-in way to send money internationally from HCB. Today, we're excited to announce a new international payment method: Wise.

What is Wise?

Wise is a payment processor that allows you to send money in over 40 currencies. They offer transparent exchange rates and no minimums. This makes Wise a great option for small-value international payments. You can learn more about Wise on their website.

Reimbursing via Wise

You can now also add Wise as a reimbursement payout method! Head over to your payout settings on HCB to add Wise as a payout method.

Fees with Wise

HCB never charges fees for transfers or reimbursements. However, Wise charges a fee for transfers processed through their network that varies based on the amount and destination of the transfer.

In HCB, you can see just how much each transfer or reimbursement will cost you to send:

We're so happy that Wise is now generally available on HCB—we know it'll make sending money easier for many of our international users. If you have any questions or feedback, please reach out to us at hcb@hackclub.com.
