*Important notes:
- Your My Account’s foreign currency wallet must contain sufficient funds prior to making a transaction. Only then will your transaction be automatically debited from the respective foreign currency wallet without any foreign exchange conversion fees.
- Ensure that your DBS Visa Debit Card is primary linked to your My Account and the correct currency is selected at point of transaction.
- In some cases, depending on how the merchant processes your transaction, your transaction may be billed to you in another foreign currency other than the local currency.
- Generally, overseas ATM withdrawals will be automatically deducted from your primary account. However, if prompted, please select "Checking/Current Account" to withdraw foreign currency cash overseas from your My Account using your DBS Visa Debit Card.
Exchange currencies, pay zero overseas fees, and earn cashback easily!
Simply set up your travel wallet by making your DBS Multiplier or My Account the primary account linked to your DBS Visa Debit Card.

To find out what are the current daily spend/NETS/withdrawal limits on your debit card and to revise these limits, you may do so via Digibank. Find out more on how to update ATM/Debit Card Limits here.
The total amount of cash that you can withdraw per day at both local and overseas ATMs is capped. This daily cash withdrawal limit applies regardless of the number of cards you have. Click here for details.
If you prefer to only use your Visa, MasterCard or UnionPay Debit card(s) for PIN-based NETS and ATM transactions and would like to disable the contactless feature, you may do so on digibank. Find out more on how to customise your Card Functions here.
Disabling the contactless feature will not affect your NETS and ATM transactions.
Control and protect your cards with Payment Controls on digibank.
You may enable/disable the magnetic stripe on your card(s) via digibank or any DBS/POSB ATM in Singapore:
The risk of unauthorised transactions occurring on the Card is higher when the magnetic stripe is enabled for overseas use, as the magnetic stripe information can be easily copied.
