How's the exchange rate for overseas transaction when

1) say you're in Msia, buying stuff from Amazon USA,

And

2) you're overseas and swiping the card overseas.

Which one gives better rates?

not sure bigpay, but wise having great rate against local exchange
you can also convert the money and keep in wise when the rate is good
wise also got free (2-3) withdrawals, just conversion charges

TQ for the clarification. I have Bigpay so it's nice to know there's something better than it.

Have both. Wise also can top up with credit card. Last time prefer BP but recently start charging 1% for credit card top up, so not gonna use it

bigpay top up using credit card ada 1% charge, cross border charge 1.5%, foreign currency macam 1%

in short bigpay sudah di-Airasia

For bigpay, there's a limit of RM1000 pm from my experience. So far never kena charge 1% or so I assume.. where do I check whether I'm charged?
