Travel Wallet โ๏ธ ๐ณ

It’s common that foreign residents in Korea are restricted to use services for locals.
This time I was planning a trip to Japan and coincidentally hear about this new travel cash card.
โ

โ
โ
In Korea going cashless is a second nature, the thought of dealing with physical currency during travels can be a bit daunting. Not to mention the struggle of deciphering foreign coins!
(Yes, I've been there, asking locals for coin value assistance, too!)
It's a bittersweet feeling, isn't it? Those leftover coins, after every trip you hate to have so many left, but at the same time they are like tiny treasures, a reminder of past adventures, and a promise of future journeys.
โ
Promises of Convenience and Fee-Free Transactions
โ
The Travel Wallet boasts seamless transactions and, the best part, no hidden fees! Once you've registered, a personalised Visa debit card arrives at your doorstep.

โ
โ
And guess what?
It's the first card I've received in Korea with my full name on it!
Talk about feeling like a true global citizen! :)
How It Works: A Debit Card for Global Explorers
โ
Operating like a prepaid card, you load your Travel Wallet with the required currency, and you're good to go.
Currently available only in some countries.
