You can add BP into paypal. But I can't get xe rate if pay via paypal.

You can get XE rate via Paypal coz I get XE rate every time when I use PP to pay USD. Here are the steps:-

1. Login to your Paypal account, then go to this link -> https://www.paypal.com/my/cgi-bin/webscr?cm...nding&buyer_hub
2. Then click "Conversion Option" link next to your BP card
3. Then select "Bill me in the currency listed on the seller's invoice."

That's all! Suggest you do the same to all other cards too because PP conversion rate is quite high.

I tried to search "Hong Kong" for Bigpay withdrawal but could not find any information. Does anyone has any info on where to withdraw and the fee?

I will post my findings here if no one tried using BP in HK.

Will definitely share coz I will be going places that accept credit card. Withdrawal, it is for emergency but I think I will try HSBC bank there.

hi all, just got back from Hong Kong and I have no issues using BP at Disneyland (3 times) and Adidas Outlet (1 time) at Citigate. The exchange rate is almost the same as XE.com

No PIN is required to pay all 4 transactions. There was one instance I need to sign on the CC slip.

Is this mean if I top up rm 3k via MBB FCB credit card then I go CIMB jaya one atm to withdraw it out. I can make the following profit?
1) 2% cash back from MBB FCB : RM 60
2) atm processing fees : RM 6
Total profit rm 60 - rm 6 = rm 54
*
Max CB for MBB FCB is RM50

I always look at price in MYR. So you are suggesting that it will be better to view price in local currency and pay in local currency with BP?

Hmm... I will try that the next time.
*
When I am at checkout page, it shows the price in MYR. Once I chose PayPal, Agoda will automatically convert to USD. My PayPal will use BP by default and I have set so PayPal will not autoconvert foreign currency to MYR. After Agoda charged my BP via PayPal, the price shown in my BP app in MYR is actually slightly cheaper than the MUR price shown on Agoda price 😀

Just came back from Japan. Used bigpay thinking the exchange rate is equivalent to XE but got a shock this morning when the app prompted me that I have a negative balance in my account cos the settlement rate is different from the rate I saw when I use the card. The exchange rate is even higher than money changer.

When I changed cash at Midvalley the rate was 37.245  and Bigpay settlement rate is 37.37!!

Totally regretted it. Such a ripped off!

Good to use BigPay when transacting online in foreign currency.

I always think money changer rate is better than BigPay

hi, just double checking, when you say Paypal autoconvert, it's the part where you are at the payment page and it ask whether you want to use paypal rate or your credit card rate right? So just choose credit card rate for BP's rates to be applied? Thank you!

By the way, would love to hear you guys feedback on the small UI changes we've made on the app. What do you think about the new font, the icons, the new settings page, etc. It'd be very valuable for us. Thanks!
