This sounds awesome! I am new to this whole app debit card thing (hard to believe I am only 30 LOL) and this whole using a virtual card at an ATM sounds awesome too. I might practice before I go.
Thanks for sharing your experience with Schwab, sounds like the real winner for USA folks like myself.
Just some 2 cents after using the wise app for a day, it really is quite cool being able to freeze the card whenever its not in use and also creating virtual cards is kind of awesome, and so is the tap ATM. I plan on freezing my wise debit card all day and unfreezing whenever I am paying...

Want to hear something funny? I got home from work yesterday and my Wise card was waiting for me
😂😂😂
I had gotten an email just yesterday saying it was delayed and wouldn't arrive until 6/9, too funny.
Ah! I saw this place but the reviews seemed kinda meh so I didn't take a closer look. However, the website is STUNNING. Also, I need to google what an estuary is.
My bank only charges 1% and they refund all my ATM fees, which is kinda why I didn't take it seriously! I have a backup card that charges 3.5%, I would prefer not to use that one!
I am a little overwhelmed as you can tell! I will be going over the rest of my details this week. I know I have passport and accommodations booked and mapped, boat booked for the spiritual, I already got euros to start me off, already have airport car booked, checked that my flights are alright...
I figured out how to add cash to it as a transfer and you're right, I can use for tap to pay. Thanks for the tip about pre-converting the monies to Euros. Thanks!
I completely understand that it doesn't get better than Chuck here in the US, I didn't realize that until it was a week bit too late. I am spoiled by a bank here that prints debit cards on site, so I didn't realize a schwab card takes 14 business days etc by the time I realized it was the right...
Good to know! I ordered it last Monday and just got a notice that it won't be here in time for my trip. I am an absolute moron for waiting this long. Woops.
Hi! So I had already started this process with Wise so I wanted to put some money on the card. Do you fill it with USD or with the foreign currency? Thank you!
Hi! That was the only option I saw. It’s a charge from wise, not from my debit card. I’ll keep looking for the bank transfer option, I must be missing it.
