Defeat monstrous fees with the Wise multi-currency debit card.

Chee-Xuan Tang

We’re excited to announce the launch of our debit card to help the people of Japan defeat monstrous foreign transaction fees.

Traditional bank cards weren’t built for overseas spending. You’re charged foreign transaction fees every time you make an online purchase, or swipe your card abroad - on top of the bad exchange rates your bank might give you.

We don’t think that’s fair. So we’re proud to launch the Wise Platinum debit Mastercard® for people and businesses in Japan. It’s time to say goodbye to foreign transaction fees and crazy exchange rates for good.

For online shoppers, travellers and expats

For people shopping online from overseas, going on holiday, or relocating abroad, the Wise multi-currency debit card is up to 4x cheaper than bank cards in Japan.

It’s already helping over 1 million people in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the UK, US and Europe avoid hidden bank fees when they spend in foreign currencies. And now people in Japan can benefit from it too.

Send, spend and receive money for less

Our debit card is part of the Wise account — a multi-currency account that lets you send money with the real exchange rate, receive money for free, and convert currencies with low fees.

Both the Wise personal and business accounts let you add, hold and convert over 50 currencies instantly and on the go. All conversions and card transactions are made with the real exchange rate — like the one you see on Google.

You can get your own bank details for Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the UK, Eurozone, and the US, to receive money for free from those places. Unlike other accounts, there are no monthly charges.

With the debit card, you get the real exchange rate on every purchase, and free overseas cash withdrawals up to ¥30,000 every month. You pay no foreign transaction fees or annual fees.

We know everyone’s different. We’ve designed the account so that you sign up only for what you need.
