PR: Cash In On Holiday Currency by Ordering Online

Report this content

We’ve all gotten into the swing of arranging the component parts of our holidays – flights, accommodation, insurance, car hire- online. The savings we make by browsing and booking over the Internet rather than sitting in front of a high street travel agent are rapidly turning online holiday shopping into a national past time. Most of us will admit to pouring over our browsers, mentally packing a case as we attempt to bag a brilliant bargain simply by surfing the net. And yet, we don’t think to arrange our foreign exchange online too – an oversight that can see most of our savings disappearing faster than an ice cream in the sun...

We’ve all gotten into the swing of arranging the component parts of our holidays – flights, accommodation, insurance, car hire- online. The savings we make by browsing and booking over the Internet rather than sitting in front of a high street travel agent are rapidly turning online holiday shopping into a national past time. Most of us will admit to pouring over our browsers, mentally packing a case as we attempt to bag a brilliant bargain simply by surfing the net. And yet, we don’t think to arrange our foreign exchange online too – an oversight that can see most of our savings disappearing faster than an ice cream in the sun. In the excitement of deciding where to go and the rush of snapping up a deal, the cost of exchanging sterling for the appropriate travel money (which can be considerable, especially if you’re going for a reasonable period and are perhaps budgeting for an entire family), is overlooked. These are costs that many of us tend to simply write off, but why not extend the feel good factor you get from booking a holiday online to doing your currency exchange online too? Airport bureaus du change, although convenient, have the monopoly on last minute currency exchange, meaning there’s no incentive for them to offer the best rate on your holiday cash. When you’re waiting for your flight to be called for boarding, you’re unlikely to quibble over a poor rate and risk arriving at your destination without any cash. A second option is then to find the nearest ATM in the country when you land, but you still won’t get the best exchange rate and you’ll be charged for using your card overseas. The same is also true if you turn to credit and debit cards. But, if you purchase your travel money online in the same way you book your flight or hotel, you’ll benefit from a much better rate – which translates to more spending money when you land. Specialist online foreign exchange service, The Currency Club offers an innovative, committed solution to minimising your travel money costs. As a user friendly web based service, there are no expensive airport boutique leases to pay and fewer overheads, equating to the same great value as a no frills airline plus outstanding customer service. The Currency Club does not use fixed rates. All currency exchange rates are dynamic so whether you’re looking for euros, dollars, Mexican pesos, or Saudi riyals, you’re guaranteed the best possible rate at the moment you buy. The Currency Club’s unique Currency Optimiser tool is designed to show the best possible rate of exchange. The gadget visually demonstrates how the exchange rate of your chosen travel money improves with the more you order. A full, bright green bar means the exchange rate is totally optimised. We’ve all been guilty of leaving booking a holiday to the last minute in order to barter an even better deal. The great news is that you can still retain this sense of flexibility and order your travel money online right up until the day before you travel. The Currency Club offers a next day delivery option – and with your own dedicated account and easy re-ordering, you won’t waste time inputting your address and payment preferences each time you order. The Currency Club uses the very latest web-based technology to help maximise even the most modest of travel budgets. Using these online tools means that The Currency Club uses a dynamic approach to finding the best currency exchange deal on the market with a total transparency of service that you won’t find elsewhere. The site has been specifically designed to be easy to use, allowing you to order your currency, check you have the best deal and arrange delivery in a matter of minutes. Sam Thakkar, Co-Founder of The Currency Club said, “Savvy travellers are definitely going online to get the best exchange rates. The Currency Club offers an easy way to order travel money online. Our customers get access to extremely competitive exchange rates, as well a secure and quick delivery of travel money.
