  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. #Wise supports Malaysia's #DuitNow QR payments now, which is great - it now supports a bunch of the other ASEAN QR payments too. I assumed that meant they also support Indonesia's #QRIS, but seems not... so that's kind of ass. Thought it's perfect timing ahead of my Bali trip, being able to pay using Wise through QRIS, but I guess not. I could, by using my bank directly though, but obviously that wouldn't have as good rates.

  3. And I was wondering why this #QRIS code didn't work... 😂

  4. Earlier this month, phase 2 of Cross-Border QR Payment between Malaysia and Cambodia was officially launched. Malaysia's #DuitNow and Cambodia's #KHQR QR payment methods are now compatible with each other in respective countries.

    The full list of countries' QR payment methods that are currently compatible with DuitNow:

    -
    #QRIS (Indonesia)
    -
    #SGQR (Singapore)
    -
    #PromptPay (Thailand)
    -
    #Alipay (China and other supporting countries)
    - KHQR (Cambodia)

  6. A #tourist hack for the people that visit #Indonesia and use a #flazz card to pay for public transport. Since you can't really check your balance as a tourist.

    1. Install the #myBCA app
    2. Open the app and go to the registration form up to the point where it asks you for your personal details
    3. Fully close the app
    4. Now reopen the app, you will get a login form with the buttons for Flazz and #QRIS
    5. Press Flazz button, tap your card against phone.
    6. You can now check your balance
