Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. SWIFT/BIC code

Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. SWIFT code: YOOXIT2B

The short code YOOXIT2B and the full code YOOXIT2BXXX refer to the same bank: Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A., with its head office in Milano. Every bank on the SWIFT network uses these codes to route payments between countries to the correct bank. It comes up mainly when dealing with transfers between countries and payments in foreign currencies.

Further down you will find the practical questions: receiving money at Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A., sending money abroad and how to check the code before you hit send. The SWIFT code alone does not identify an individual account holder; for that you need the account number or IBAN is for.

Is YOOXIT2B still correct? How to check

The best place to find the right code is a document from the bank itself like a bank statement or the account page in online banking. Compare it against YOOXIT2B on this page.

An incorrect BIC can cause a delay, a returned payment or extra fees along the way. A mistake in the account number can be a bigger problem.

A format check by your bank merely confirms that the code exists – not that it belongs to the person you mean to pay. If your bank offers it, a name check before sending gives an extra layer of safety. When you pay someone new, some people start with a small test amount before sending the rest.

Paying Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. in euros within SEPA

Within the SEPA zone, euro payments to an account in Italy use common rules, so the IBAN does the job in most cases. A field for the BIC is usually optional or missing in that case.

A SWIFT code like YOOXIT2B does matter when the currency is not euros, and for transfers from outside SEPA. If your banking app asks for the BIC anyway, entering YOOXIT2B is fine.

Instant euro transfers are widely available across SEPA. As long as the payment stays in euros, a SEPA transfer is cheap.

What to give a sender who pays you at Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A.

If you are waiting for a payment from another country, give the sender all details at once. In practice that means: your full name exactly as it appears on the account, your account number or IBAN, the BIC YOOXIT2BXXX and, often, your postal address.

The sender’s bank might also ask for the bank address of Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A., in which case the Milano head office is the usual answer. Double-check the details before you send them.

Do not be surprised if the amount credited is below what the sender paid. Correspondent banks can take a fee, Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. may charge for incoming payments, and if the currency changes, an exchange rate margin comes on top. Agree with the sender who covers the fees before the money is sent.

International transfers from Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A.: the real cost

An international bank payment can cost rather more than the fee suggests. Besides a fixed fee, banks in between may deduct a fee, and if currencies are converted the bank usually uses a rate that is less favourable than the actual market rate.

Banks do not list the margin on the rate separately. Check their rate against the mid-market rate.

For a lot of routes, a specialist provider turns out to be cheaper than a traditional bank transfer – mostly thanks to the rate. Next time you send money, take a minute comparing the total cost via GoldexPay rather than accepting the bank’s rate by default. Choosing a specialist does not require closing your account at Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. – you pay the provider from your own account.

How long does an international transfer to Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. take?

How quickly a payment arrives at Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. is determined by several factors: the currency, how many intermediary banks are involved, daily processing deadlines and time zones. Bank holidays in either country add a day or more. Sometimes a bank asks what the payment is for, which can hold things up.

If a transfer seems delayed, ask the sending bank about the status and the transaction reference so they can trace it along the chain. Keep the payment confirmation until the recipient confirms; it contains the details a bank needs to start a trace.

If a payment has not arrived within the expected time, the sender should start with their own bank, not the receiving bank. As a recipient, it helps to check your account to see a slightly lower amount.

Changed bank details? Be careful

Scammers regularly use payment requests containing new bank details. A correct SWIFT code says nothing about whether the request is genuine.

Always verify changed bank details through a phone call, using a number you already had. Be suspicious of time pressure, unusual wording or an email address that differs by one letter. Already paid? Call your bank without delay and ask them to try to recall the payment.

Scams also target the receiver: someone sends too much and asks you to return the extra via a different route. A payment confirmation from the sender is no proof – check your own account.

The Euro and what conversion costs you

Most accounts at Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. are usually held in EUR, the local currency. If you send money in a different currency it gets converted at some point – by your bank, by Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A. or by a bank in between. There is rarely a separate line for that conversion.

Which bank converts the money matters, because each party uses its own rate. Check how much EUR the recipient gets via several services.

Rates for EUR move during the day – some services let you fix a rate in advance. With bigger transfers, a seemingly small difference in the rate adds up quickly.

What the XXX in YOOXIT2BXXX means

Every SWIFT/BIC code starts with an 8-character core: four letters for the bank, a two-letter country code and two characters for the location. The result is YOOXIT2B, the short form of the code.

XXX at the end of YOOXIT2BXXX does not stand for a missing value or a mistake: it stands for the head office of Yoox Net-A-Porter Group S.P.A.. Some banking apps ask for 11 characters, and then you can enter XXX after YOOXIT2B.

Enter the code as one block, in capitals and without spaces, exactly as shown here. A wrong character may route a payment to a different institution, so copy it carefully.
