Order TW card to a supported country while the country my account isn't supported

[rainy]

I have a verified Ttransferwise account of a country where they don't send the card. Say, I have a friend who lives in a supported country. How, if it's possible at all, order a card to his address?

I need this information as well

Simple.
You change address in your profile to an address from a supported country, then order a card.
But of course, they can request address re-verification if your volume is high enough.

That's a TW feature: they avoid unnecessary verifications to lower costs. It depends on your volume.

And then I'd change it back? Won't that *alone* trigger them to ask me to verify my address, whether it be the old or new one?

What are deemed big and small volumes?

"Big" is like more than $15000 per month, I think. Never tried it though.
And I'd leave "new" address as it is for a time

If you change it back to non-supported country, TW would cancel your card because they issued it thinking you are EEA resident.

Address verification in TW is common lately, so chances are big they will catch you even before you managed to cheat them 😀

Is that your theory?

I have actually moved to a non-supported country and I changed the address in Transferwise about two months ago. Card still works fine!

Let us know if they cancel it in the future!

Will do! If they cancel it, then I will just “move” back and request a new one.
