Is Visa pronounced "Wise" in… what? I had to check the Wiktionary to find out if I was pronuncing either wrong, they seem different enough to my IPA-reading mind… 
TransferWise (whom I've very happily been using for bank accounting and international money transfers for the last few years) are rebranding to "Wise". That's great, except that it sounds identical to "Visa" if you pronounce it in the languages of half the countries it's used in.

I meant that if you're a German or Polish speaker, and you read "Wise" like a native word, it sounds very close to "Visa", not the other way round!
