Do 7-Eleven stores in Thailand accept payments via PromptPay or QR codes?

oh i didnt know that. But what about Makro? At one time they would only accept true wallet but then they also allowed QR codes from internet banking apps. That was the only reason I had true wallet at the time because I did a lot of shopping at Makro. I gave it up when true wanted me to undergo some kind of interview to verify my identity to continue using true wallet and I couldn't be bothered.

I'd imagine it's because they don't have a live connection to the bank. Same reason you can't use debit cards on a flight for example

@Jake ******

good question :) go ask them and see if you can make some sense about it :)

@Jake ******

credit cards with a chip are contactless and there is no more risk than any where else in the world. I use mine every time I go to 7-Eleven or anywhere I can because I get 3% back on international travel charges.

@Jake ******

is it still swipe type payment with credit cards not contactless?

I never tried cards from Thai banks in the 7-11, only foreign debit cards. But my Krungsri Visa card and Bangkok bank Mastercard (debit) work fine in gasstations...
