Travel Money Currency Card Providers and Currency Exchange Rates

The Currency Exchange Site provides independent comparisons and reviews of the different providers of Travel Money Currency Cards. These are an excellent way to take travel money with you on your holiday, and offer a number of benefits:

  • You can load them up with travel cash in Pounds, Euros, or Dollars before you go as well as while you are away, and avoid the extra charges and rates you get from using a normal bank debit or credit card
  • They are much safer than carrying large amounts of foreign exchange as cash while you are away, while still giving you 24 hour access to foreign currency!

All in all, we highly recommend taking one of these cards with you while you are away.

If you are a frequent traveller, have a look at one of the British pound currency cards offered by a number of travel money card providers. Your money will be protected; can be accessed worldwide and all foreign currency transactions will be subject to an attractive inter currency exchange rate with none of the usual add-on fees associated with plastic.
