Travelex Card

Travelex Card: I have only just got the card but the experience so far feels good. I haven’t swiped it yet to pay for anything but the ease of transferring funds onto this Travelex card was so so easy. Now I’m in Australia I may get to use the Travelex card today. The fees are incredibly amazing. Thank you Travelex I expect to have fun whilst I use the Travelex card.

The online ordering system was easy to follow.
Only gripe was on pickup.
Not only did I need my passport phone confirmation but also the card/acc used to purchase said dollars.

Easy to travel

I found this card so easy to use overseas, no one rejected it and mostly I could just tap it to use it. Topping up the card was easy too. Highly recommend
