Pros and cons
Pros
- Top-ups in USD, EUR and JPY are converted at the live rate with no exchange fee under Travel Pay.
- The account holds 46 currencies, and cashback of 0.3% pays on everyday spend.
- Registered with the Government of the Republic of Korea for prepaid payment instruments, currency exchange and overseas remittance.
- Support runs on email, phone and chat, so help is easy to reach.
Cons
- It is a prepaid card, so the balance sits with Travel Wallet Co., Ltd. rather than a bank.
- Cash access is limited to $500, which ranks 7 of 115 on our data.
Who it suits
- Business travellers, since the account is listed for the business audience and built for travel.
- Anyone holding 46 currencies who pays across several markets on a visa card.
- Cardholders who top up in USD, EUR or JPY and convert at the live rate.
Who should look elsewhere
- Skrill, if you want an account with a standing monthly charge, since Skrill charges €5 a month against KRW 0 here.
- JMMB Moneyline and JMMB Money Transfer prepaid card, if a single market money transfer card at JMD 0 a month fits you better.
- CrediMax Cardy EX prepaid Visa, if you want a prepaid card at BHD 0 a month and a single market account.
How it compares on our data
On our data Travel Wallet sits 1 of 419 on monthly fee, 1 of 259 on currency conversion fee and 7 of 115 on free ATM withdrawals. Cost is where the card leads; cash access is where it lags against the rest of the market.
Fees and FX
The monthly fee is KRW 0 and the currency conversion fee is 0%, so keeping the account open and spending abroad cost nothing on either line. Top-ups in USD, EUR and JPY are converted at the live rate with no exchange fee under Travel Pay. The rate you are given still sets what a conversion costs you.
