As we cannot hold MYR in the card, don't know how to fund the card.

Weird, why not? I enabled MYR in my multi-currency account, funded it with FPX via bank transfer. When I paid for local merchant in MYR it deducted from my MYR wallet at 0 fee. Works fine for me.

I even withdrawn directly from IBKR to my GBP account and spend direct from there. It's everything I've wanted in one of my previous thread.

only for USD and EUR. Not for SGD. I transferred SGD from merchantrade to wise. Now still pending for verification.
no issue on USD (transfer from merchantrade) but cannot from Paypal as cannot link bank.

around 4.5% since the card is not US based (depend also on amount). If you use local card, then fees is cheaper. u will know before transfer as they will tell you before to proceed

Just came across WorldRemit ad when I looked up exchange rate for MYR to SGD... 5M+ app download versus Wise's 8M+, sounds pretty legit. Anyone heard of this or have any comment about it?
