About e-Money / e-Wallets
E-money is value you top up in advance onto a card or app and spend in place of cash — it's not a deposit account and doesn't earn interest the way a bank account does. Providers include both banks and non-bank e-money issuers, and each sets a different maximum balance you're allowed to hold. Top-up channels and fees also differ — some let you top up free through a banking app, others charge depending on the channel you use. On top of that, some charge an entrance fee and annual fee, and others charge neither.
CheckDi compiles e-money and e-wallet products from providers across Thailand using the Bank of Thailand's public product data, so you can compare maximum balance, fees and usage conditions from every provider in one place, free of charge.
How to choose e-Money / e-Wallets
- Check the maximum balance you're allowed to hold, and whether it's enough for how you plan to use it, since each provider sets a different cap.
- Look at the top-up channels that are convenient for you, and whether each one carries a fee.
- Compare the entrance fee and annual fee — some providers charge neither.
- Check spending fees, such as for transfers or cashing out of the system, before using it regularly.
- Check whether the merchants or services you use often accept that particular e-money provider, since each system has a different merchant network.
- Remember e-money isn't a deposit account and doesn't earn interest, so avoid keeping a large balance in the system longer than necessary.
