Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 932 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. People frequently praise the seamless online ordering process, noting how convenient it is to arrange their travel money and pick it up locally. Branch staff members are widely described as extremely friendly, approachable, and very efficient when handling daily transactions and explaining card usage. However, some people mentioned receiving large banknote denominations, such as hundred-dollar bills, which made spending and getting change difficult in cash-reliant destinations. A few reviewers also noted experiencing frustrating wait times and lengthy queues at specific store locations when arriving to collect their pre-ordered currency.

Convenient to order on line

Convenient to order on line, but too many charges depending on where you want to pick up your money and charges for using a card

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

Travelex is worth using overseas

When we buy different currencies and we make the payment straight away it takes a few day to show up in our transaction and is not instant. This is really annoying when you are overseas and you have to top up your card!

Superstar in Nelson!

The agent in Nelson (and shamefully have forgotten his name) was excellent on all 3 of our interactions.
He "went the extra mile"
I was also able to observe him deal with other customers while waiting, and he showed the same patience and kindness to all. A difficult task as many of the queries would have been the same old, same old!
