Is it possible to get the virtual card without getting the physical card? It seems I don't see the option for that?

I waited for 3 weeks however the card did not come. Hence I placed an order for another card and it came in the second week. I think it's normal for it to be lost in transit.
*
how do I order another card?
I try to click "order" on the top right and it says I have already reached a limit of 1 card.
I read the help section. it asks me to wait another 7 days.
I wonder if I will be charged again for the card.

Sharing of info here

For those planning to use wise card in Singapore mrt, remember to chip and pin at atm (balance enquiry will do) to activate your card before you even start your journey, I got stuck at exit gantry and charged maximum fare

Also, there is extra charge of SGD0.60 oversea administration fee even fare was charged to my SGD account (my card was issued in malaysia)
*
this has to be done in singapore atm, right?

TnG Visa's exchange rate is poor, no point in giving it any thought, lol

if go to China, which has better exchange rates for cashless payment?
- use TnG app with AliPay
- use WeChat app with Wise card

Alipay n Weixin Pay for foreigners is hit n miss due to restrictions on peer to peer transfer. Cash is better in China. Japan can get by with minimal cash.

Does Japan subway accept typical credit/debit/wise card to go through turnstile?

let's say I travel to Australia.
in my WISE account, I have MYR wallet, USD wallet and Euro wallet.
how will I know which wallet it will deduct from if I use the card in Australia? can this be set manually?
