Wechat wallet - https://katocard.com

[lloop9]

Hi fellows,

Has anyone tried this service https://katocard.com? Looks like they can top up wechat wallet, can pay by paypal.

I'm heading to China in June so if this service really works then great loh, no need bring so much RMB...

Any advice is welcome.

Hi, if need to top up your wechat, perhaps if you have friends from China, ask them to top up for you and you pay them. I got my china colleague to top up for me and i transfer to their bank here.

I tried doing that. Received the Ang Bao, but was prompted to enter a local account with ID. It doesn’t work at all. In the end, got to return Ang Pao to Friend.

I use this website to top up my WeChat wallet in Feb 2019. The account was top-up within minutes after I have made payment via PayPal.

Let me know if you need more details.

If you read their FAQ and the comments under the FAQ entry, it seems to me starting from this month Feb 2019 some users can not top up but they can also offer 代付 “paying on your behalf” service.
