Moved from the doomed Boon to Monese. Can just topup using debit card (mine is MBB). Topup 20€ charged 100.97 which is decent.

Hi, sorry was busy with online classes hahhaha

Here's a step by step instruction to apply N26

Applying for N26 Account

1. Set up a "Tiptrans" account, is a forwarding service to get your physical card
2. Get your "german address" from tiptrans
3. Download N26
4. Apply N26 account but setup your country as Germany but your nationality as Malaysian
5. There will be a step where you have to video call them for them to verify your identity
6. Have your Malaysian passport ready, they will want to see EVERYTHING on it to verify your identity
7. Properly Set up your address and Name proparly (as Below)(But with your info and tiptrans address details)

Name : Your name and Lastname

Address : Tiptrans, "Your name and Lastname", Set #xxxxxx
Hauptstrasse 20
Zip : 02727
City : Neugerdorf, Sachsen
Country : Germany

8. Having your correct name is important for future Bank transfer as Banks wants the name to match 1-to-1 for personal transfer if needed
9. Having your Address setup correctly the first time to receive your card on time
10. After you have been verified, topup your account (min 20Euro) but I suggest more as this is the only time you can topup without any fees
11. After successfully toping up, you have access to your N26 Virtual card
12. Change you iPhone Region to Singapore, and now you can add your N26 Virtual Card to Apple Pay
13. After adding your card, you can change back to Malaysia (Not needed btw)
14. Your Virtual card is valid for only 30 days, so getting your physical card forwarded on time is important

Forwarding the physical card


"Assuming you have entered the correct address details"
1. Your card should arrive at TipTrans Germany around 7 days
2. They will charge you 10Usd for receiving your card
3. Now you have to set up foe them to send that card to you in Malaysia
4. Choose "Czech Post" as that is the cheapest option
5. Pay them up, Total cost would be around RM70-100 for everything
6. Wait around 10-20 days
7. After getting your card in the mail, Just an envelope, Activate the card in the app
8. You have to use that card at an ATM before that card is fully activated
9. Withdraw some money from ATM using that card, then that card will be fully activated and usable to use at any terminal in Malaysia
10. Note : Yes, that card only use 4 pin number, not 6 pin number like Malaysian Debit card

How to topup N26 Card
1. You can topup directly using your debit/credit card in the app but there is a 3% fee and a minimun of 20Euro topup
2. Some cards will give you error when toping up, so I Suggest using TransferWise
3. For TransferWise, use the "Bank Transfer" option in the N26 app, they will list out all the info needed
4. Sign Up for TransferWise, verify your identity (This one be truthful, no need to lie hahhaha) Will take few days
5. Enter all the info for bank transfer from N26 app
6. First transfer will take a few days as they want to verify your identity, but after the first one, the transfers is instant

Sorry noob in this. Where can we use Apple Pay in Malaysia?
Is this purely for overseas expenses in countries that do support ApplePay only?

Any place where we can use paywave (mcd, watson, starbucks) we can use apple pay

Thanks for your fast response. I need further enlightenment. I'm very new with this Apple Pay thing.
Is this mean that any credit card machine that accept PayWave can be use with this ApplePay as well?

I see you have enjoyed your apple pay hhahaha. I see you’re in bandar utama, quite close to me hahahha

I haven’t received the referral tho, I think you have to activate your card first, by withdrawing from an atm (any atm) then your physical can be use (learned that the hard way)

Hi bro I ordered mine and its already in shipping I'm worried it reaches the tip trans on new year(1/1/21).  will they accept it if its on public holiday at least? I don't mind they process later on but at least if they accept I wouldn't have to contact the n26 support to ship out card all over again. I ordered the card on 29/12/20 and chose standard delivery.

used apple pay in malaysia for the first time. no one bats an eye..

but i do feel like a global citizen now. i feel like i finally catch up to the present instead of living in the past.

everyone still living in stone age using qr code   

anyone pls help     

hmmm...seems different from mine 
anyway thanks bro 

just submitted the details and verified by their agent.
now waiting for the physical card     
I already added the virtual card to wallet, can I start using the card already or still need to wait for the physical card to arrive?

Apple may soon open its first retail store in Malaysia
Hope this will bring Apple Pay to Malaysia too

I followed step by step still don’t get it

No error from N26 but Tiptrans never receive any of the letter.
Anyone use Tiptrans here and receive the card recently?
