Currency Card from FairFX
One of the best ways of avoiding big currency discrepancies is prefilled cards. Save money!
Did you know that many travellers pour a lot of their hard-earned spending money down the drain by not hunting down market-leading currency exchange rates?
The FairFX Prepaid MasterCard® is a prepaid card which gives market-leading Euro and US Dollar exchange rates, low cash withdrawal fees and doesn't charge for purchases made in the card currency.
What makes this card different from other debit or credit card alternatives?
It allows UK residents to own a pre-paid currency card in Euros or US Dollars.
Unlike most credit or debit cards issued in the UK, because the FairFX Cardis denominated in a foreign currency, when you use it abroad to pay for goods you won't be charged any transaction fee. There is a low fee of €1.50 or $2.00 for cash withdrawals.
Also, because money is stored in Euros or Dollars you won't suffer from uncompetitive exchange rates when using the card. Card users can typically expect to save as much as 10% on Euro and US Dollar exchange rates.
How does it work?
Your pre-load it with cash from a UK Sterling debit card, credit card or bank transfer to lock-in market-leading currency exchange rates.
The lifespan of the card is 3 years. You can load it as many times as you want during that spell.
