79/100
Score

One of the cleanest fintech landing pages — concrete number-led claim, transparent fee positioning, and category-defining "vs. banks" framing.

Highest-impact issue

"Money for here, there and everywhere" is brand-cute but burying the value. Wise's actual differentiator is the mid-market rate + transparent fee — both of which are explained below the fold but not in the hero.

Real founders, real fixes
We followed the Landing Doctors recommendations before relaunching ads and the difference was obvious. Better messaging, stronger CTA placement, and less visual clutter made the page convert much more effectively.

Useful feedback overall. We changed a few sections and bounce rate improved slightly. Not earth-shattering but worth the price for the structured perspective.

What this page does well

4 strengths
"160+ countries, 40 currencies, one account" — concrete scope claim that signals serious infrastructure.
Live currency calculator in the hero — proof-by-doing, not promise.
Comparison vs. banks ("save up to 5x") with named competitors (HSBC, Revolut) — confidence in the comparison.
Regulatory trust signals (regulated by FCA, FINRA, etc.) prominent but not overwhelming.

Findings (3)

Was → problem → fix → why

Each finding cites the live copy at audit time, names the conversion problem, proposes a specific rewrite, and explains why the rewrite works against the 12-dimension framework.

Finding #01clarityMedium
Was
Money for here, there and everywhere.
Problem

The headline is poetic but doesn't name the differentiator. A buyer comparing Wise to Revolut or PayPal can't tell from the hero what Wise does better.

Fix
"Send money abroad at the real exchange rate. No hidden fees. Used by 16M people globally."
Why this works

"Real exchange rate" is Wise's actual moat — the entire reason the company exists. Naming it in the hero gives the visitor an instant reason to keep reading.

Finding #02social proofMedium
Was
(customer count + total processed visible, but not in the hero)
Problem

Wise processes ~£100B/year and has 16M+ users. The hero shows neither stat. Cold visitors miss the scale signal that justifies trusting Wise with cross-border money.

Fix
Hero strip: "16M+ customers · £100B+ moved · 4.6/5 on Trustpilot (180K reviews)."
Why this works

For cross-border money movement, scale = trust. Three numbers (users, volume, rating) make a fintech feel safe in the same way that a $100M+ AUM makes a hedge fund feel safe.

Finding #03CTAMedium
Was
(primary CTA is "Get started" — works for warm intent, soft for cold)
Problem

For a buyer who came specifically to compare exchange rates, "Get started" isn't the right entry point. The currency calculator above the CTA does the work, but the click target should match the user's intent.

Fix
Replace "Get started" with "See your rate before signing up" — let users price-check without committing.
Why this works

Honest pre-signup pricing transparency converts price-sensitive users who otherwise bounce to PayPal. Trust earned by showing rates first.
