Yes, there seems to be an issue with your rate. For your reference, here's my rate.

only 1 debit card. Maybe didn't linked properly causing the issue.

just a reminder that new wise signups won't have USD accounts for now

Hi sifu all, i am going taiwan soon... but i realise wise no support taiwan... should i go taiwan to withdraw money via wise or just use the contactless feature... which is better and cheaper

I just withdraw twd20k cash from ATM in Taiwan airport now. Yes, wise works in Taiwan.

How about ATM/Wise charges, if any?

ATM will charge 229.63twd.
Wise has their currency conversion charges.

That's likely the Wise's 1.75% for amount more than RM1000 in ATM withdrawal.
ATM withdrawal fee, if any, usually is about TWD100.

Withdraw RM1000 worth of TWD (around TWD6700) from ATM free of charge from Wise. Then use the contactless (paywave) feature of Wise card wherever acceptable. If you are coming during month end crossing over to new month, can withdraw another RM1000 worth of TWD for free.

ATM at the convenient store, if not from bank usually imposes TWD100 withdrawal fee. I've tried 國泰銀行 ATM, no ATM fee imposed.

thank you so much for the information.

Hi,
A company in US is reimbursing me USD 180 and requesting for my bank account details. Is it better to receive this via Wise USD account or to our local bank ? Anyone faced any issues receiving money transfer using Wise ? I'm worried my fund may get stuck. They are asking for bank name. Do I use the name in the Wise app (Community Federal Savings Bank) or Wise?
Thanks.

u can refer to wise acc info

cheapest way to get it back in ringgit

1. make sure Wise have already given u a bank acct info
2. ask them to ACH to your US bank acct provided by wise
3. after hours or couple of days, wait for U$ to be banked in
4. convert to ringgit
5. using your wise debit card, reload RM to your TnG ewallet/BigPay

Can you send money from your Wise business account to your MYR local bank account?

Hi
Yes, I got it the details from there. I'm just wondering if anyone faces any issues or its better to save the headache and use our local banks. But their rates are so low.

Thanks.

Thanks so much ! Will do as advised.

My Wise acct is Aust-based as my address is in Paddington, Sydney.

I have been given an acct in Aust which i use to regularly transfer from Aus->RM.

I wonder how if i need to transfer RM->Aus?

Wonder if i can ask Wise to give me a local MYR acct?

If not, i will need to ask my wife to open up a Msian-based WISE acct like how most of you guys in here are doing.
