Wirex bitcoin wallet recently announced [through email] that they would be adding a new SegWit wallet as part of their preparation of welcoming SegWit onto the Wirex platform. The contents of the email are as follows:

"Amazing news. Your wallet will soon be upgraded with full SegWit support — and this means your blockchain fees will reduce significantly.

As part of our preparation to support SegWit you’ll receive a new bitcoin address. This update will happen in a few days from now.

Your balance will be automatically transferred to the new address (so you don’t have to do anything).

You’ll need to make sure any new transfers are sent to your new bitcoin address moving forward.

We’ve covered the details on our blog."
