I always purchase stuff from Ebay and am using PayPal (which charges quite a bit). Will using Wise help on this?

Another question, I have some $ on Etrade (company stock). Can I transfer those to my Wise account?

jar = "cold storage"

card spending can take monies from any accounts... but cannot from jars...

I want to hold some USD while all of this economic cold wind blows. I was planning to open a USD account with CIMB until I saw their spread was around 3.5%.

I'm estimating that I'll be in USD for 6-9 months.

Can I use Wise for this?

This is a very good question!

I am curious to know also. But I guess you will just have to keep selling your dollar until it goes back t0 20k MYR.

Anything above the limit will be automatically withdrawn to your bank account.

I found this on their app:

We know that from time to time, you may receive or hold more than 20,000 MYR at a time. Once your balance is over 20,000 MYR, excess refund will need to be triggered. So to remain compliant, while giving you control of your money, you’ll have 7 days to withdraw the excess money to an external bank account. If the excess amount isn’t withdrawn in 7 days, we’ll freeze your account.

Once you've set up your external bank account, the excess refund will be triggered immediately if your balance is over 20,000 MYR.

Meaning that, usd in paypal > transfer myr in bank acc > transfer myr in wise ?

Any tutorial? Even Wise helpdesk replying me this, i have usd acc in Wise btw

Thanks for sharing the screenshots. It looks like you're only able to link a bank account in MYR. So, you'd have to link your Wise MYR account details to PayPal. You can find it by selecting on the currency you opened on the app/web. Here's more info: https://wi.se/myr-bank-details
