American Solar Challenge

Wire Transfers Fees

Paul Hirtz — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 22:07:44 +0000

Please note

When paying entry fees to the foundation using a wire transfer there will be an additional $25.00 US charge applied. This is to cover cost associated with wire transfers that our bank charges the foundation.

Take care to note any fees that your financial institution may charge. Also consider any exchange rates when moving money from overseas. All fees are to be paid in US dollars.

Questions please ask. We will work with you to ensure that the proper amount is paid. Small differences can be finalized when you arrive in Texas.

Thanks!
