This another thread following up on the discussions about using Wise as a _via_ payment system (i.e. not _to_ a Wise account nor _from_ a Wise account).

I will give an example to clarify the above.

Let’s say I am a seller of BTC and asked for payment in a currency where there is no or very few takers e.g. CHF. How could I suggest possible takers that they can take the offer and pay via Wise? Should we add a “via Wise” in `Choose payment method`? Or could the offer also be shown in `Choose payment method` is `Transferwise`? I am not saying we should ; that is more of an idea and a question.

A few relevant points:

- Wise is recommended in the pinned thread: [How to make your offers more successful?](https://bisq.community/t/how-to-make-your-offers-more-successful/10117) pointing to [TransferWise is the perfect fit for Bisq](https://bisq.community/t/transferwise-is-the-perfect-fit-for-bisq/10116)
- I get the sense from a thread discussing usage of Wise to take SEPA offer that the practice is tolerated [1][2] but against Bisq’s policy [3] at the time [3] thread was written) because as of today ;
- it is tolerated/allowed(?): "TransferWise can be used in SEPA trades as well, where one peer uses SEPA and another uses TransferWise.[4]

Thought: if Wise\<\>SEPA can take place, should SEPA (and maybe Instant SEPA) trade also show when `Choose payment method` is `Transferwise` is selected? Or rather, should seller with `Payment method` elect for their offer to show up in `Choose payment method` is `Transferwise`?

And again, back to my initial question, with regards to sellers asking for payment in non-SEPA account: could sellers with non-SEPA `Payment method` elect for their offers to show up in `Choose payment method` is `Transferwise` or (hypothetically) a new category: `via Wise`?
