Hi there,

I'll be visiting a few ASEAN countries soon. Does anyone have any experience using cross-border QR payments at TH/KH/SG/ID?

1. Does it really work smoothly / seamlessly?
2. Does it work with all local banking apps, or only certain ones, e.g. MAE?
3. How are the currency charges like?
4. Can you rely on this and take limited/none local currency?

Thanks!

Used Wise Card. These 4 country mall & chain restraurant able to accept Credit Card, Wise card will be ok.
Each Country have thier own QR pay APP but Alipay are only one appear in all these 4 country due to Massive China Tourist.
Go oversea...Just bring Cash + Wise Card..kaotim
