After considering both Indonesia and #Thailand for our upcoming trip in Sept, my wife and I have chosen #Phuket. We're prolly gonna do the same thing we did with our last trip to Osaka and not get cash, only adding our money to #Wise and using #ApplePay with it when possible, and cash withdrawn from our Wise card at an ATM in cash-only stores, but god it's such a shame that Wise does not support #DuitNow QR payments. They really should though >:(

That being said, Wise (at least somewhat) supports QR payments to Singapore's
#PayNow - and PayNow is compatible with DuitNow and some of the other participating QR payment systems including Thai's #PromptPay. I wonder if that means you could make QR payments from Wise to PromptPay QR codes... I doubt it lmao.

@im_mark_aylward Exactly! I don’t understand why people don’t get this. Mostly what I hear is because it’s cheaper. Well, what will they do when all we have is Prime and Walmart and they raise prices? Walmart is notorious for it. #PayNow or #PayLater
