Make your holiday money go further ...with Kalixa
Updated : Tuesday, July 06, 2010
Kalixa has no FX fees and the lowest exchange rate from MasterCard
With the wide acceptance of credit and debit cards abroad, it's
all to easy to use traditional plastic when travelling. But what
cardholders often miss is that their card issue will charge a fee,
normally between £1.50 and £2.50, per transaction made abroad.
Combined with the less than favourable exchange rate offered by the
issuing bank, this can add a significant amount on to the holiday
budget.
The Kalixa prepaid MasterCard offers a cheap, effective
alternative. From 1st June till 30th September, the standard FX
fees will be waived on transactions made abroad. What's more,
Kalixa offers the lowest exchange rate available, passing on
MasterCard's own rate to the cardholder.
The result is savings of 5-6% compared with other standard
products such as cards issued by high street banks. Kalixa also has
an advantage over specialist travel products - because it's not
currency specific, you can use it any country. Plus when you return
home, there are no costs involved in spending funds from your card
in the UK.
So what are you waiting for? Make your holiday money go further
...with a Kalixa prepaid MasterCard.
