What you can do with the money you save
Introduction

Saving money isn’t always about earning more. Sometimes, it’s about losing less.
As more people earn in USD through global work and international clients, transaction fees can quietly eat into hard-earned income. That’s why Cleva has lowered ACH and wire deposit fees again, giving users a simpler and more affordable way to receive USD without sacrificing speed or reliability.
This update is part of Cleva’s ongoing commitment to helping users keep more of their money in 2026 and beyond.
What changed in fees?
Cleva has updated its deposit pricing to make fees clearer and more predictable.
- Wire deposits are now charged at a $10 flat fee
- ACH deposits start from $1 for amounts under $300
- ACH deposits remain $3 for $300 and above
There are no percentage-based fees and no hidden charges. What you see is exactly what you pay.
Why lower fees matters
Flat fees make a real difference, especially for users who receive money frequently.
With percentage-based pricing, the more you earn, the more you lose to fees. Cleva’s pricing stays the same no matter how much you receive, which means you can plan ahead without worrying about unexpected deductions.
Whether you’re receiving payments weekly or monthly, these savings add up over time.
Putting it into perspective
If you receive $500 via ACH five times in a month, you’ll pay $3 per deposit, which totals $15.
If you receive $5,000 via wire three times, you’ll pay $10 per transaction, which comes to $30 total, regardless of the amount.
That difference might feel small at first glance, but over months of consistent deposits, it can mean significantly more money staying in your account.
What you can do with the money you save
Lower fees create more flexibility in how you use your money. The savings can help you:
- Build your dollar savings faster
- Pay for tools or subscriptions you rely on
- Set money aside for personal goals or travel
- Simply keep more of what you earn without extra stress
Sometimes the biggest win is knowing your money isn’t being chipped away quietly.
