Recently returned to MY, and so frustrating that apple pay isn't yet supported here. It is really a lot more convenient than having to get the wallet and flash the physical card when making payments... When will we finally have it?

Yes foreign cards that are apple pay compatible are usable here in Malaysia but there is no reason for me to charge local spending to my foreign cards (and incur foreign currency charges when paying the card bills) just because those foreign cards are in my apple wallet.

It works on a contactless basis which is akin to paywave (i.e. not by swiping).

Hi. Thanks for the guide in registering N26 and I used your referral code.   

I do have a bit of a problem though, I can't seem to topup using credit/debit cards. Tried all of my banks and contacted them before trying to make sure my account is allowed for overseas transactions but to no avail. N26 however said it was declined by the banks themselves, although none of them said this is true. Not even a transaction is recorded in their system to check the error code.

Do you have any idea why? Is it because of the name on my credit card and the name on N26 is a bit different? Have "Bin" in First Name. Thanks in advance.
