Claire Cockcroft:
I am having problems sending registration money to the conference.  A service like WISE (formerly TravelWise) does not recognize czech characters with accents.

Is there another safe money-tranfer service that can recognize non-latin characters?  Or is there another way to write the pertinent information?  I'll admit, I've no experience with this sort of thing.

Thank you for your help.
