Bedeutung
Taking money out from an ATM.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Thai ATMs are famous for being colorful. Each bank has a signature color (e.g., Kasikorn is green, SCB is purple). People often refer to the bank by its color rather than its name. Despite the rise of digital payments, many small street vendors still prefer cash to avoid transaction fees or because they aren't tech-savvy. 'Kod ngoen' is a daily ritual for foodies. In Thailand, it is common to see ATMs in very public, well-lit areas. However, 'skimming' was a concern in the past, leading to the rapid adoption of cardless withdrawals via mobile apps. In the past, 'kod ngoen' in a different province than where you opened your account incurred a fee. This led to people 'stocking up' on cash before traveling.
Use the Color
If you can't remember the bank name, just say 'Tu si...' and the color. Everyone will understand.
Check for Fees
Withdrawing from an ATM of a different bank often costs 10-20 Baht. Look for your own bank's color to save money!

The 'Tang' Alternative
Use 'Kod Tang' (กดตังค์) with friends to sound more like a local.
Cardless is King
Set up your Thai banking app for cardless withdrawal immediately; it's safer and saves you from 'machine-ate-my-card' nightmares.
