Now wise card can’t be added to TNG anymore ?

If not mistaken:
In SG, Wise use FAST transfer (no fee).
In MY, Wise not having DuitNow but use MEPS (got fee).

Hey gang, Just open my wise account recently. Will travel to Europe in this few months. So my question is should I put my money on Jar or Balance account? Which one is better?

RM or Euro?

Why Wise today exchange rate vs Yen n Thai baht so bad today ? Money changer better rate . Thai baht I use past few days got excellent rate but today it plunge badly.

Malaysian ringgit exchange rate doesn't get updated after Friday evening as the ringgit is regulated by BNM and BNM doesn't work weekends.

Ringgit last traded around 4.375 on Friday evening and the ringgit exchange rate will be updated (by BNM) on Monday morning. US dollar has been falling last night because US interest rates look set to be cut next month (https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/23/economy/rate-cut-size/index.html) so yen has been appreciating last night.

Expect ringgit to strengthen on Mon morning because US dollar has traded lower on Friday night.

Due to expectation of US rates to be falling soon, US Dow, Nasdaq and SP500 all rose fairly strongly last night. Yipee!!

Euro n gbp

What's the long answer?

biertrinker cross-border fees could be subsidized, not free forever

Always check fees updates, many caught unaware that sending USD increased from USD0.39 to USD1.13. What is free now might change in future

My wife create Wise account use my referral code which can select "Here’s a free card or transfer for Wise" from the link. However why she was charged RM13.70? I helped her to check but no option to select free card or transfer also.

jhleo1 DM me your referral link? i go check

Done. Sorry for trouble you to check.

Emailed to Wise to report "BUG" because wise checked everything included referral code could not found any problems. Asked to cancel the card order & redo. If still doesn't work, pay first and wise will refund back the RM13.70.

Anybody know, banking like Wise but without the caps of 20k?

20K cap is by BNM, not by Wise. Hence, any similar competitors will still have this regulatory limitation.

So if WISE oversea issue card eg SG can put more than RM20K value or equivalent currencies?
