pick out what license plate number you like from the choices and give them your credit card .
That’s what i did , they charged me an extra $100 dollar for using the credit card , they said that’s what they have to pay .
I wondered why but TiC ( used to be TiT ).
I use the credit card ( or ABA pay ) almost anywhere i go these days and save heaps of ATM charges , but i wouldn’t like to think about the conversion fees if my card wasn’t in USD’s
What is TiC (TiT) ?
Yea used regular visa credit card , way before i even has a bank account here or the ABA pay thing was in use ..
now i can use Credit card at the big supermarket here and Burger King. No problem no commission
but my residence won’t let me use it without extra charges i still don’t understand , but they accept the ABA payment
Got the moto new at the honda dream dealer in sihanoukville They charged me an extra $100
They said the credit card would charge them
[This is cambodia
This is thailand ]
so ur bike was $3,300?
most large smart business owners will eat the cc charge as its good marketing.

I'm sure a lot of businesses don't want the auditability (hope that's a real word) that goes with credit card transactions.
Re: Motorbike stolen. Need new! Where can I pay by CC?
^^Being on the business end of things, I would never want to deal with credit card companies ever again. The merchant fees are the least of my worries.

I HAVE a belgian friend who is driving around a KTM, i would think 125 or even more, he is leaving back to belgium in about 6 weeks and wants to sell it. I think he will be happy with a banktrasnfer from your sswedish bank to his belgian bank, if you want his contact, PM, he is leaving close to Phsar Kandal on 144 !!Joakim wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 10:03 pm The story is that our 10+ yers Honda Wave 100 got stolen last week. Afternoon at 138. Normally a safe area but...
Searching around here and there and around friends. The conclusion is to buy a NEW bike.
I need a 125 for going around PP. (BIG boy and the old wave 100 was a little bit weak.)
It has to be a Honda. My wife is VERY clear about that.
Thinking of a Honda Click 125. New at the Honda dealer 26K. Way overpriced but...
If I found a NEW Honda Wave 110 it could be an alternative. But Honda dealer have only 100.
The question is; Can I buy a new Click somewhere in PP and pay with CreditCard? I have Visa, MC and AmEx.
Paying with CC is far better for me than transfer money. Points to my FrequentFlyer and about 2-4% cheaper than Cash.

Thanks for asking but a KTM is not actual. And it has to be max 125.

Re: Motorbike stolen. Need new! Where can I pay by CC?
I know of no dealerships that accept credit card payment for a moto. I tried last year at Suzuki HQ on Monivong and Sihanouk Blvd and was denied, and the same at numerous other Honda dealerships.
Re: Motorbike stolen. Need new! Where can I pay by CC?
Exactly, any complaint from the buyer leads to a Cashback action plus charging the fees involved which start at €14 in my case.
PayPal sucks for merchants, but credit cards beat them by a mile.
Re: Motorbike stolen. Need new! Where can I pay by CC?
KTM starts at 150cc I think which requires a license. I know many drive one without but if you ever get involved in an accident without having the legal license it might be a lot of trouble.Bongmab69 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 03, 2022 10:52 pmI HAVE a belgian friend who is driving around a KTM, i would think 125 or even more, he is leaving back to belgium in about 6 weeks and wants to sell it.

Don’t know that it was exactly $3,300 Guess honda isnot a “ smart business owner “
I got the moto at the honda shop in sihanoukville , it was normal price for a new dream at the time
I was new here and don’t remember the actual price or know about the percentage you say but
I was then coming from thailand so it felt like just a random round number at the time
and I chalked it up to TiC at the time and paid it
Now am so happy the credit card is accepted at my supermarket and Burger King , it saves alot on ATM withdrawal fees
Still not accepted at my apartment tho , something about that fee again .

Re: Motorbike stolen. Need new! Where can I pay by CC?
You must look like a ripper-offer , I use my American credit card here in siem reap all the time , no hidden fees or charges and I get reward points out of it , also saves a lot of ATM fees since i don’t have to withdraw from my bank in USA and redeposit into ABA ,
ABA wasn’t even cracked up to be what it is today back when I got my dream moto .. still got too ..
