To make sure your employees get paid correctly, it’s important to choose the right routing type when entering their bank details.

The routing type you need depends on whether the payment is a local or international transfer:

  • Local transfer: Use this when the bank is in the same country as the currency you're sending.
    Example: Sending USD to a bank in the United States.

  • International transfer: Use this when the bank is in a different country than the currency you're sending.
    Example: Sending USD to a bank in Hong Kong.

Each currency has a specific routing type based on the transfer type. Check the table below to find the correct one to use:
