Chip and pin in Thailand?

[webber4]

Hello,

 

I live in koh phangan and I just received a new Wise card. In order to activate it I need to shop something with chip and pin.

 

I tried the 7 eleven but It didn't work there. Any idea which shops would have it? If not in koh phangan, maybe in koh samui?

 

Thank you.

On the very rare occasion of using a card and pin that was at a TOPS supermarket.

Was a local debit card though.

How do I activate my Wise card?

 

Non-US cardholders

There is no separate activation step for your Wise Card. You just need to pay using your PIN to enable contactless payments. If the Chip and PIN payment gets declined, please use the card at an ATM for either:

• Cash withdrawal

• Balance enquiry

Like someone else said TOPS supermarkets should work for chip and pin. 7-11 has never worked for me even with a local bank's debit card.
