Nike Inc SWIFT/BIC code

Nike Inc SWIFT code: NIKEUS61

The 8-character code NIKEUS61 and the 11-character code NIKEUS61XXX identify the same bank: Nike Inc, with its head office in Beaverton,or. A SWIFT code shows the sending bank exactly which bank should receive the money. In daily life you usually see the code on invoices from abroad, in payment forms and in the bank details of Nike Inc customers.

Below we go through the practical side: receiving money at Nike Inc, sending money abroad and how to verify a SWIFT code before you hit send. The SWIFT code on its own does not identify a personal account; for that you need the account number or IBAN .

Sending USD to Nike Inc

The currency in United States is the US Dollar (USD). Money sent in a different currency will be converted into USD before it reaches the account – and the bank that does it picks the rate. There is rarely a separate charge for that conversion – the cost sits in the rate.

Who does the conversion has an effect on how much arrives, as rates and margins differ per bank. Compare what USD the recipient gets via several services before choosing one.

The rate for USD changes constantly and quotes are often valid only for a short time. If you pay regularly, small differences in the rate add up over time.

Watch out for payment fraud

Stay alert when someone suddenly asks you to send money to a different account or a bank in another country. A valid SWIFT code tells you nothing about whether the request is genuine – scammers simply use real codes.

Do not trust a phone number in the same message that announces the change. Urgency or secrecy tend to be warning signs; a genuine business can wait for you to check. Already paid? Call the bank you paid from straight away and have them try to recall the payment; also report it to the police.

Scams also work the other way. Someone sends more than agreed and asks you to return the extra to a new account. Do not act before the money has really arrived and check with Nike Inc if anything seems off.

Choosing between the 2 SWIFT codes of Nike Inc

Nike Inc uses 2 separate SWIFT/BIC codes. One of them is the head office code; the rest belong to branches or departments.

Unless the recipient tells you otherwise, use NIKEUS61XXX. When you receive a branch code, use it as it is rather than swapping it for the head office code.

When in doubt, ask the person you are paying for the exact BIC in their bank details. Branch codes are more prone to change than the head office code.

How long does an international transfer to Nike Inc take?

There is no fixed delivery time for international payments: many land within a day. Payments made after the cut-off time or just before a weekend or public holiday usually start a business day later. Sometimes a bank asks about the purpose of a payment.

A growing number of banks use SWIFT gpi, which lets them follow a payment from bank to bank. Every payment carries a unique reference, the UETR, which your bank can use to see where the money is. Save the payment confirmation until the recipient confirms; it contains the details a bank needs to start a trace.

The bank that sent the money can request a trace; the receiving side usually has nothing to trace yet. Ask the sender for a copy of the payment confirmation; that often settles the question quickly.

8 or 11 characters: NIKEUS61 versus NIKEUS61XXX

A SWIFT code is made up of fixed blocks: the first four letters identify the bank, characters five and six show the country and characters seven and eight indicate the location. For Nike Inc, that core is NIKEUS61.

Many banks and apps accept both lengths. If a form asks for eleven characters, use NIKEUS61XXX.

Leave out spaces or dashes when you type NIKEUS61 or NIKEUS61XXX. Watch for the letter O and the digit 0 or I versus 1.

What a transfer from Nike Inc abroad really costs

A bank transfer abroad costs rather more than the listed fee. You pay the transfer fee, possibly fees charged by intermediary banks along the way and, above all, the exchange rate markup if the currency changes.

The real cost is often in the rate, not in the fee: the bank converts using an exchange rate with a margin built in. Check the rate you are offered against the mid-market rate – the rate you find on financial news sites. The difference is your real conversion cost.

For a lot of routes, a transfer service is less expensive than a bank, mainly because of the exchange rate. GoldexPay lists these services side by side so you can see the amount the recipient gets before you commit. You can always keep your account at Nike Inc as the source of the money.

How to check NIKEUS61 before you pay

The safest source for the BIC is the bank details provided by the recipient. Compare it with NIKEUS61 here and ask if anything does not match.

An incorrect BIC may lead to delays, a returned payment or extra fees. A mistake in the account number can be more serious because it can reach the wrong person, so check that just as carefully.

An automatic check by your bank only confirms that the IBAN is valid, not that it is the right account. Some banks now check the payee name against the account before you confirm. For a first payment, some people start with a small test amount and wait for confirmation.

What to give a sender who pays you at Nike Inc

Someone abroad who wants to pay you needs several details from you. The basics are: the account holder’s name, account number or IBAN, NIKEUS61XXX and in many cases your home address.

Their bank might request the address of your bank, in which case the Beaverton,or head office is the usual answer. Check the details before you send them – a sender rarely spots a mistake in someone else’s details.

Do not be surprised if the incoming amount is below what the sender paid. Intermediary banks may deduct a fee, Nike Inc may charge for incoming payments, and when currencies differ, an exchange rate margin comes on top. On invoices, it is common to agree how the fees are split, so that nobody is left short.
