Payment Information:
The preferred method of payment is via Master Wang’s Wise Business account at the Wise app. PayPal is no longer an option for payment. If you don’t use Wise, please plan to bring cash to pay at the door and let me know that’s your intention. Please notify both Master Wang and Leslie when you’ve made your Wise payment.
Instructions for using Wise vary according to whether you’re using the phone app, or a PC or Apple computer. Broadly: We are sending US Dollars, and Master Wang is receiving US Dollars. Most problems arise because one of these is GB Pounds (which is the default, so you have to change it). Master Wang’s account is a business account. Other information you may need is:

Instructions for Wise (via a browser on a laptop)
This assumes you've already set up a wise account. I did not link my wise account to my bank account, I just use credit card. If you set up to a bank account you may have to give your social security number, a picture of your driver's license, and possibly a picture of yourself.
After you've set up the account, follow these steps:
1. Log in.
2. On the left hand side there is a green button with "Send Money".
3. You are able to enter the amount of money you desire to send. Enter that amount in US dollars. Make sure that both the "you send" currency and the "recipient gets" currency are both USD. I selected ACH, You have the ability to select payment type of ACH (bank account), wire, credit card, or debit card later on. Select continue.
4. This brings you to the email screen. Enter jia_...@hotmail.co.uk.
5. The next screen gives you the recipient choice. Choose Business or Charity.
6. Now we're at the details screen. For credit card I left it as ACH. If you're doing a wire transfer, I assume you can select wire
