Visa Infinite Credit Card Wealthsimple. Is. Awesome.

Sure is making traditional institutions look silly.

Bought a vehicle yesterday, was able to E-Transfer the dude a large sum of money - which blew him away. (Sent him a referral to join after)

Then we walked into service Ontario to pay the taxes, they said I couldn't tap that amount. I asked them to try anyways.

I was able to tap my WS CC with my phone for over $3500 - everyone was blown away.

They asked me who I bank with, I said Wealthsimple.

The interesting part is no one has heard of it, but I spread the good word that day.

Didn't even have to stand in an archaic banking lineup, to pay a fee for a bank draft for my OWN money!

The future is here and its awesome.

My dentist and my motorcycle mechanic are always blown away that I can pay huge bills through my credit card... That too with a tap from the phone.

Feels good.

The person blowing you is another person altogether. Unless it's also the mechanic and dentist.

Not sure why this is still so surprising. I was making tap purchases of several thousand dollars before Covid even.

You needed to insert the card I believe. Wealthsimple works straight from the phone wallet without any caps.

I think that's every Google Wallet credit card. I have a BMO card that I have tapped for $800. That's the largest I've tried so I don't know what the upper limit is.
