Stop Getting Ripped Off when You Travel Abroad - Wise Card Review

If you travel abroad & swipe your credit card, you wouldn't know how much your bank will charge you for that transaction until you get your statement a couple of days later.

The Wise Card is an essential financial tool for frequent travellers & digital nomads.

I've been using the Wise Card exclusively for my spending during all of my international travels & thought it would be a good idea to share something beneficial to my audience.

You missed the most useful feature of using Wise card abroad.
Say you have USD, EU and MYR balance in your Wise account and you go to London. Since you do not have GBP, when you use Wise card to pay, Wise will determine which currency that has the best rate to convert to on the fly.
ie If the exchange rate is better in USD-->GDP at the moment, it'll choose your USD balance to pay.
You really do not need to convert/open a GDP account before you use it, unless you wanted to.

I have a trip in August/September in Europe and I’ve been setting aside money weekly on my wise card. I think it’s a great budgeting tool for vacationing. Thanks for the video, it was very informational.

Thank you for this video. I’m in my late 60s and have hesitated getting Wise because I didn’t totally understand it. This was an excellent explanation of how Wise works. I will use your affiliate link.

Wise fees caught us out in France. Taking out our own cash via Wise was very expensive. Their monthly limit before their fees are charged is very low in my opinion. Be sure to read their terms and conditions before you get a Wise card.

I use this just to get actual market rate for my money for a small flat fee and then buy things on US amazon for 10x less lost money than what paypal screws me with on the exchange rate overall.

The only big downside for Malaysia and Singapore residents is that there is a special regulation that only allows about $4000 max that can be stored in your account. When I had my residency in Germany there was no limit. Philippines has gone even further and there is a special branch they established for Philippines only. Wise is a great tool and the best in my opinion, but some countries are giving a huge headache, like Indonesian bank recently restricting Wise and its no longer working for Indonesia residents.
