We use Wise but their USD accounts are US-domiciled. So we have 3 options: - Continue paying out to Wise and incur an additional 1% fee (~$30k per year) - Use Stripe for currency conversion which is additional 2% fee (~$60k per year - Find

Same here. This is a massive dent in any of our remaining profit. Realistically we'll need to look to leave

"UK businesses who are paying out in USD to a US-domiciled bank account will now incur a 1% fee, with a minimum fee of US$2.50." So if we get paid out a USD payment, into a USD account. We get charged just because we're regis

Not quite, the EU and UK have a draft adequacy agreement in place. Should be signed by the time the transition period ends.

Yep, although the phone call requirement is a new one and was introduced by a sneaky update to their terms: https://twitter.com/rtwlz/status/1341581686216245248

Run a business here, oh and we use Baremetrics too. To be 100% clear we never want to call you or Brian. Listen to your customers here. If there are people that want a call, offer the option, but please don't force it. And don't d

Long time customer of Baremetrics here. And this shady practice is really really offputting, to the extent where we are now looking into cancelling (without a phone call, of course)

Congratulations on the sale and thanks for sharing. Very interesting for someone who's probably a few years behind you.

The app certainly does take into account transfer times between lines. If you also require accessible transport it'll further take into account the transfer times by measuring the amount of lifts you need to take.

Visited this last year, remarkably good condition. The Koreans were very keen to point out the size of the armoury and guns on board the ship.

Point being, lots of companies offer options on the 4 year vest, 1 year cliff in order to keep great employees. If the end result is that mediocre employees end up hanging around, not motivated, then it works for neither the employee, nor t

Have seen this far too often. I was at a successful UK based startup very early on, so my strike price was pennies. Those who joined a year or two later were looking at strike prices in excess of £30 with hundreds shares. Recent investment
