Won’t be using paper currency again…

Always carried Euros because could never find a card provider that met my needs. It did what it said on the tin. Being notified immediately of every transaction was helpful

Simple to use and saving money

Simple to use and saving money all the time while spending. I love it! 

Julie 

We love Currensea 

We love Currensea especially receiving instant notifications of transactions Saves us taking our usual credit cards and knowing we are only paying local rates 

Moon 

A must when travelling abroad! 

Really easy to use, immediate notification by e-Mail regarding the transaction. Would definitely recommend. 

Janice 

Very easy to use 

Very easy to use. Full transaction info continually updated. No hidden surprises. Fully aware of all expenditures. Easy to lock and unlock card whenever. 

Carl 

Fantastic experience 

Set up account within 5 minutes. Card received in two days. So much easier than having to constantly load up a Monzo / Revolut / Starling card! 

Ollie

Peace of mind

Currensea saved us around £60 in currency exchange fees on transactions. Used abroad everywhere as a traditional debit card.

Rebecca

Leave the bank card at home and save big time

Works exactly as you’d expect and is way cheaper than using bank cards, especially at ATM’s. My Halifax card was hardly used overseas due to charges and now it can stay at home.

Jeff

First time using the card. Would recommend.

I found the card really easy to use & liked the real time updates on spending. When I travel again I would not hesitate in using it again. Convenient and safe.

Julie

Great travel companion

Simple travel solution when you are visiting multiple countries. Instant update on how much you spent. There is also a really useful online currency calculator.

Moira

Easiest way of spending abroad!

No card to top up like previous cards I’ve used and it was totally effortless. After each transaction you get a message telling you the exchange rate, I would highly recommend!

L Marshall

So easy to use

I’ve been using the card in Europe, Singapore and Australia constantly and it’s so easy to use. I like how I get instant notifications which tell me how much I’ve spent in GBP
