Both a day and 24 hours also never hit the limit

Yeah could be. But now even the same name for cc and grab account also not letting me top up lol
How many times have u tried to top. Grab is very strict with number of times one tries to paywave or top ups.

For paywave they'll limit like 6 times thereafter they'll only allow another few more times to make up to 10 times in total for the day. Once after I try paywave top up my ezlink continuously 6 times the error message shows up. Shortly I went to restaurant it also doesn't allow any transaction. I ended up have to use other cards to pay.

For top ups they'll also have such limitation. I can't exactly remember how many times for top up into grab wallet but yes they are sensitive about the number of times and set limit on that too. Their reason is to prevent fraudulent transactions.

How does limiting how you use your paywave prevent fraudulent transactions? Christmas shopping, a meal easily, then drinks, buying gifts from diff shops, stuck.

and it’s not like the awesome (/s) grab CSO will refund you even if you drop your grabpay master card and someone went on a shopping spree.

Haha yalor. And this has been the way since years ago. Not something new. Every time I want to paywave 10 times at Ezlink top up m/c to fulfill the clock 10 transaction for Grabpay powerup I'll need to split into 2 trips. It's very inconvenient and silly. After the 1st 6 times I'll need to go shop around. 1 hour later then go back paywave existing 4 more times and that's it. That's the limit for the day.

Sounds like it is time for MAS to conduct stress test on Grab Finance.
