Check the total cost, not just the rate

It's important to look at the overall cost of buying your foreign currency, not just the exchange rate. The best travel money deal will involve a combination of a good exchange rate and low commission, together with good value on handling costs, credit card charges and delivery fees. You might also get a discount for buying over a certain amount.

Make sure you compare travel money, like for like

  • When will you get your cash or prepaid currency card? If you’re travelling the next day you don’t want to wait ten working days for delivery.
  • How will you get your foreign currency? Would it be more convenient to have your travel money delivered to your home, or to collect it from the airport?
  • Is the rate advertised on the comparison site actually available?
  • Will your credit card be charged? Some providers charge over 2% for using a credit card to buy travel money – which can make a huge difference.
