QUOTE(Teutonic Knight @ Apr 20 2023, 09:37 AM) Thanks man. Understand it now. Does shopping mall food court area accepts Visa? 7-11 and McD will have additional surcharge? Just back from BKK last month, and there are no additional charge when spending at 7-11, McD and mostly food court area. Thumbs up for 7-11 regardless any amount can use wave via terminal, as I loved to buy vitamin C drink at 7-11. I only encountered 2 massage centers need to add another 2-5% if you plan to use card. However, they'll inform you when you said you wanna to use card. So no issue. This post has been edited by ideaplus: Apr 20 2023, 09:47 AM

QUOTE(strawsticks @ Apr 23 2023, 11:43 AM) Thank you thank you thank you , this workaround is a lifesaver. I ordered my card 2 weeks ago and still haven't arrived, will be flying off to Vietnam next Saturday already. Starting to get jumpy coz I don't have my Wise card yet. I'm normally a Samsung pay user but downloaded GooglePay and this worked 👍👍👍 By the way, I also read other users sharing their experience that contactless payments not widely accepted in other countries such as UK and Thailand. Anyone have a clue about Vietnam? Easy to use contactless payments everywhere? My big ticket expense is hotel payment in Hoi An, Vietnam. Edit: i saw some ppl saying that i need to spend locally first. Does this apply to digital cards also, or only physical card? No problem with the digital card. You may use google pay as usual without activate a physical card. Some more, you may just insert the physical card into any Malaysia ATM machine to check its balance It'll trigger the activation. For Vietnam, I'll advise bringing more cash in hand since you're not traveling to Hanoi or HCM which bigger city in Vietnam. Happy traveling!!!
