What is the best currency card to use?
There are many different currency cards on the market offering different exchange rates, fees and benefits. Caxton currency cards allow you to spend abroad without fees, while providing the safety and convenience of a prepaid card. Choose our Red Card to get the best exchange rates.
What does a currency card do?
A currency card, also known as a travel card, or travel money card, provides better exchange rates than a traditional bank card and avoids expensive exchange fees. Caxton currency cards also allow you to buy and hold 15 different currencies, and our Red Card provides a range of exclusive benefits.
Are prepaid currency cards worth it?
Prepaid currency cards involve the user preloading the card with money before spending with them. This provides added security, as they are not directly linked to your bank account, and you decide how much money to have available. With Caxton currency cards, you can also buy and hold 15 different currencies, allowing you to lock in exchange rates if the market is in your favour.
What are the disadvantages of a travel money card?
Travel money cards are great as they allow you to easily spend your money in different currencies abroad. However, it may also be a good idea to carry cash when travelling, in case your card is stolen or lost, or if you are trying to buy from a cash-only establishment. The Caxton Cash Delivery service offers next day currency delivery to your home, in over 50 different currencies.
