Wise card spending

[persimmon]

I just had a look at the Wise site , but can`t find any info. about spending limits using the card via chip + pin or contactless . I`ve used contactless in the UK for a £ 75 purchase which went through ok . Will contactless work in say , big C Thailand , and is there a limit ?

Can see it in the app.

At the bottom you have a tab called "Cards" after you get a menu.

One of the items is called limits....

The default total maximum daily and monthly spending limit across all of your Wise cards is €30,000 or the Thai Baht equivalent. You can lower this limit in the settings for any of your cards, and the change will apply to all of them.

 

Contactless payments work at Big C, Foodland, Villa, 7-Eleven, and almost all major supermarkets and department stores. Based on my experience, contactless works at around 70 to 80 percent of places in Thailand that accept credit cards.

 

Most stores don’t seem to have any upper spending limits for card purchases, but some require a minimum purchase of ฿100 or ฿200 to use a card. Others have no minimum at all.

Also can use in Lotus, not Makro

Correct, Makro only accepts cash or direct bank payments via QR code. 
 

In many petrol stations, like Texaco, attendants walk around with a wireless card payment device that also accepts contactless card payments.
 

If you have an Apple Watch, you can also add your Wise card to the Apple Wallet on your watch and then simply tap your watch on the contactless card reader at the station. Don't even need to pull your card out to make payment. It works like a charm.
