    Default Canadian ladies- what places take Payoneer?!?!

    Hey ladies! I need to know what places in Canada allow you to use a Payoneer card(preferably bank branches) - I'm buying a laptop, have it on hold, just got paid, and want to use some of the funds for the laptop. Plus I've just been having a bitch of a time finding places- I can't even use it at Timmy's. I think HSBC does and I think CIBC does, but I'm not 100% sure. I'd check at work on my phone but where I work I have absolutely zero service. I was hoping to get into the store for the laptop within the next few days here. Any info would be appreciated!

    Athough I'm not from Canada, in the beggining I was scared to use the card, cause I read so often that it gets rejected. I didn't have a problem yet, but when I'm not sure, and when I don't buy groceries, I go for online shopping. I just pay it onlne, so not embarassing if its rejected. It was not yet. I also do this with local shops if they have a website. I order and pay it online, and then I walk in the shop and fetch it so no postage fees. I don't know if you can do it in Canada or not.

    The ATM, that's pretty much it. There was one little corner store that took it because they didn't have the chip yet, and London Drugs once punched in the number by hand for me. I've gone to the ATM and didn't get fee'd half to death (it was the standard $2.75). But you do have to watch out for the currency conversion and I know sometimes they will tack on about 3% of what you're taking out (though I've never experienced it) If it's any inclination, the last time I withdrew money it was $70 CAD and after the fee and conversion it was $77 US

    Actually, now that I really think about it: You can probably use it at the place you're buying the laptop from. The thing you have to watch out for is that they can swipe the card like a credit card (because it's a Mastercard) I just remembered that I've used it at the ferry and the grocery store several times as well. You just can't use it as a debit card. Tell them it's credit and to swipe it. But it comes off instantly from you account.

    I live in BC and havent had many problems with using it. I've used it at grocery stores and department stores like Wal-Mart...bought things at La Senza.
    The only places that gave me problems were certain banks. I have an account at Coast Capital and they wont let me withdraw but I think that's because they do Visa so maybe they just dont accept mastercard?
    I had huge issues with a ATM at Bank of Montreal...said I got my money when I didnt so I had to dispute and 7 weeks later I got a refund.
    Everywhere else I've gone it's been good

    I'm not from Canada, but in my experience, anywhere taking mastercard will take it.
    I've been able to swipe it as both debit and credit..as long as the funds were there. I let someone use it to pick up stuff for me and they tried buying a few other things that there wasn't money on the card for. She came back like "Oh..I thought it was a credit card I was just going to pay you back" >.>

    I live in Vancouver but am from Montreal, and have used my payoneer successfully everywhere. even timmys O.o
    it's just that instead of a pin (unless you're at the atm at a bank) you have to sign the little receipt that comes out.
    I used to work in retail, and the chipless cards should work regardless... lots of international credit cards dont have a chip.
    Also all banks have an issue if they arent associated with Mastercard, so I use BMO and have never had a problem.
    idk? seems strange. i hope i didnt just jinx myself >.< lol
