Hi,

Looooong ago, someone in this forum launched the idea to offer a (reloadable) Credit Card for the ThaiVisa members.

But the plans didn't work out and the whole project was cancelled.

I live in Thailand on 1-year Visa's which are extended every year.

I have asked for such a card in several banks and other places, and found some distributors like "OK-Cash".

But their Visa card can only be used within the Thai territory, which make it pretty unusable.

I'm looking for a Reloadable Credit Card which can be used to make online payments outside Thailand as well.

Preferable, one that can be reloaded without using a Credit Card.

Does anyone have any tips on this subject?

TIA

We didnt actually look into the e passport one as we didnt need 2 sorry about that, heres another like it, again i havent looked right into it,. https://www.e-gold.com/newacct/

i tryed recently www.payoneer.com (they doing franchise as well ... ) would be a suplyer for a thaivisa cc card ;-)

however .. i got the card (activation works fine) ... inital fee is 19USD (outside US) or 9USD insidde us ...

so far everything allright .... 3bucks/month 3,5% for charge .. and 5USD each redraw on a ATM ...

the cool thing is that you can anyone let "load your card" so its also a nice payment gateway

Only allowed for US Residents as this is the only choice in step 1.

Nevertheless, thanks

I can see now why it was so difficult for the original pioneer of "Reloadable Credit Card for ThaiVisa members" to open an account in Thailand.
