Built using the company's API, the chatbot will guide users through each step, the company said in a blog post.
The chatbot can also be used to set up exchange rate alerts, the company added.
TransferWise head of global partnerships Scott Miller said: “Our mission at TransferWise is to bring faster, cheaper, and more convenient international money transfers to everyone in the world. Building the TransferWise bot for Messenger is a great step in that direction.
“It’s also a powerful example of how our API can be used to seamlessly integrate TransferWise into almost any messaging, bank, or business payment system.”
