How Touch n Go eWallet Visa Card compares
Frequently asked questions
What does the Touch n Go eWallet Visa Card cost to use abroad?+
The currency conversion fee is 0%, so overseas spending carries no conversion charge on the transaction. That sits far below the 1% site median, and the card ranks 1 of 259 brands on this measure.
Is this a debit card or a prepaid card?+
It is a prepaid card, so you load a balance first and the card spends down that balance. Debit cards draw on a current account instead, and they are the more common type on this site at 74.3%.
Which network does the card run on?+
It runs on the visa network, which is the network carried by 58.6% of cards across the site. That makes it usable wherever Visa is accepted, including on the travel circuit.
Is this card built for travel?+
Yes, travel is the feature the card is built around, and 51.4% of cards on the site carry it. Among travel cards specifically, 90.7% are tagged for it.
How much do other prepaid travel cards charge for currency conversion?+
Prepaid cards on the site show a median conversion fee of 1% and a top quartile of 2.5%. The 0% charged here is below that group, which is the main reason to look at this card for a trip.
Do I need to plan ahead for the balance on the card?+

It suits people who travel and want a card with no conversion charge, plus anyone who prefers to cap spending by loading a fixed amount. Business users form 66.1% of the audience on the site, and students 18.8%.
