We have enabled SEPA Instant Transfers, allowing all our clients to make euro payments across the Eurozone in mere seconds.

This new feature works for both outgoing and incoming SEPA transfers without the need for extra setup. Moreover, it is priced the same as regular SEPA transfers, making it highly accessible for quick, low-cost transactions.

More currencies for your wallets and international transfers!

Genome has expanded the list of currencies our clients can use in addition to euros (EUR), US dollars (USD), and British pounds (GBP). Our personal and business wallet users can now also open up to 5 accounts per these new currencies: Polish zloty (PLN), Swiss franc (CHF), Japanese yen (JPY), and Canadian dollar (CAD).

Setting up these accounts is straightforward, requiring just a few clicks in the Genome dashboard. You can effortlessly link your new accounts in PLN and CHF to your virtual and physical cards.

And, of course, business wallet clients can use all these new currencies to send and receive international money transfers!

Improving Google Ads management with virtual cards

Did you know that using virtual cards to manage Google Ads payments can be very advantageous? For one, you can issue as many cards as you need and link them to your different accounts for media buying!

With Genome’s virtual Visa cards, you can set spending limits, manage multiple ad budgets, and avoid unauthorized charges by dedicating unique card numbers to specific campaigns. The cards can easily be used for other ad platforms like Facebook and TikTok! 

Protecting yourself from account takeovers

The safety of your data and payments is always under scrutiny, especially during the holiday season. That’s why Genome’s team decided to expand our tips on how to prevent account takeovers (ATO).

We outlined essential ATO prevention strategies, including using multi-factor authentication (MFA), maintaining unique and complex passwords, and staying vigilant against phishing attempts. It is definitely a very topical article to check out. 

Consider your options for bank account opening

The end of the year is near, and you might consider switching banks or looking for more beneficial banking options to improve your financial management!

Our guide on bank account types clarifies options for individuals and businesses alike. It covers the benefits of different accounts, from standard savings and checking accounts to specialized accounts for business growth.
