  1. Seriously, I've long not used cash... ever, for years, given how extremely common #QR payments and #NFC payments are everywhere here (MY). Even at your local pasar (markets) and roadside stalls. This makes me not a fan of traveling to anywhere else where this isn't true, cos I hate having extra foreign notes and especially coins after a trip.

    I'm going to
    #Bali soon. I heard QR payments (#QRIS) is popular and maybe even common in at least the city parts of #Indonesia (Jakarta, Bandung, etc.). I hope that's just as true in Bali? I'm expecting to make payments at like eateries, konbinis, tourist spots (for tickets n such), souvenir shops, massage/beauty parlors, etc. Would I need cash for these? I do expect needing to have some cash for 'parking jockeys' as tips (and emergencies ofc).

    Most of my money for this trip, like I do anywhere else, will be in
    #Wise tho. I'll just add some money in my local currency (MYR), then for card payments, I'll just use #ApplePay and it'll auto convert n charge me in IDR. For QR payments, Wise unfortunately does not support QRIS, so I'll either use my local bank (#Maybank) since MY's #DuitNow supports QRIS, or do the same as I've done in #Thailand where I make QR payments using #TnGeWallet, which charges my Wise card. For cash, I'll bring just a little bit from home, then withdraw anything necessary from ATMs there with my physical Wise card - as it seems that at least for certain ATMs in Bali, they charge nothing for cash withdrawals (unlike Thailand). That'd help avoid exchanging too many bank notes from home.

  2. holy crap #samsung UI looks garbage even compared to other #android ‘skins’ lololol but #samsungpay integrating #duitnowQR now is seriously cool. they’re starting with #maybank but seems like they’ll add #shopeepay too. #apple needs to get in on this instead of only supporting the ‘traditional’ NFC payments. cooler if they can even figure out supporting these QR payments without internet connection, but dk if dats technically feasible.

  3. This new #RytBank - I'm thrown off by their #AI shtick, but this news certainly does enough for me to even be somewhat interested into looking them up. Anyway, the 'point of entry' (i.e. to get set up with a savings account) seems super simple, but until they support #ApplePay, they're not as enticing as they could be. That being said, even major players like #CIMB still don't support #Apple Pay in Malaysia - it's not the worst thing in the world since you could just have a secondary card that is avai on Apple Pay e.g. #Maybank or even digital 'banking' like #Wise, but def not an option as a 'sole' bank for me.

  4. So #Maybank does not only not display the actual amount received in a foreign currency - only showing the post-conversion MYR amount (with no exchange rate info whatsoever) in their web UI or mobile app, they also do not disclose those information in the monthly account statement - despite initially telling me that these could be found there. What a dogshit bank.
