Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had managed to find an EMI that will offer a physical debit card to customers in Asia? Specifically interested in Indonesia.

Purpose is for personal use, general money transfers and online shopping.

If so, please let me know which providers etc - really appreciate it.

Thanks

There are a few that have cards that can be provided in Asia, some of them have license in EU and offices in Asia. But depends what type of card you need, Union Pay, MC or Visa?

Union Pay is easy to get. PM me if you need more info.
 
Thanks for your reply.

Looking for any type of card that allows me to make online purchases and the account for general sending/receiving transfers.

Thanks
 
Yes apparently Crypterium does take SEA resident and send cards there, will try them soon.
Someone mentioned recently SatchalPay, Paysera, and Bitsafe that also do.

An other alternative I believe is Swissquote, a broker for stocks and crypto and they provide debit/credit cards worldwide.

They are all outrageously expansive though unfortunately...

Something is preventing the big EMI like Transferwise/Revolut for providing cards for SEA residents even though they have presence in Singapore if i am not mistaken. Until this change its better and cheaper to get local bank accounts everywhere possible (after the flue bs crisis ends...).
