Can I top up my TrueMoney Wallet in Thailand with an international debit or credit card?
Hi everyone! 👋
I recently registered for TrueMoney Wallet in Thailand using just my passport. I’ve also applied for a Thai driving license, which I should get by tomorrow. Once I upload it, my account will be fully verified and flexible to use.
My question is about topping up the wallet: Can I use my international debit or credit card, or am I limited to cash top-ups at 7-Eleven or ATMs?
Can someone please explain how it works for foreigners? Thanks a lot in advance!

Please explain how you "applied for a driving license and get it by tomorrow".
Usually you pass the tests and get it on the same day.

You said, you applied with just your passport. No need to show a long term visa and if there is, will DTV be accepted for True Wallet?

You can also top it up in cash at any True payment machine (the ones that look like ATMs) at True shops.

do you mean "after" you have topped up? Then yes you use the app to Scan a QR code to pay or at 7-Eleven use the Pay button to allow your QR code to be scannedRochan ***********
OPAnonymous participant 379 when I top it up at the true counter can I use true money to pay using the QR?

Yeah can real only top via Thai bank account or cash in 7-11 or affiliated shops i.e True mobile I think...
So I sometimes send it to a friend with This bank account and then they fire it across...
Plus limited to 30 "PERSONAL QR" Scan payments per month....
Look into Moreta app for scan payments very useful & handy as can link to Wise or Revoult or other banks etc & supposedly meant to be able to scan personal QR codes by January and can also use in other S.E Asian countries too...
