9 Reasons Why BigPay Makes Travelling Easier

Now that international borders have reopened (about time!), you can finally visit those exotic destinations that you’ve spent the past two years drooling over on social media.

Travel gives us our fondest memories, our greatest stories, and countless learnings. However, a money problem can ruin an otherwise perfect getaway.

Ask any traveller and they’ll always have the same questions — Can I use my card overseas? How much money should I bring? How much are the additional charges? What if I run out of money?

BigPay has the solution to all your questions. Read on to find out why.

1. You can use it anytime, anywhere

Your BigPay account comes with a Visa card which gives you access to over 45 million merchants worldwide. Use it anywhere in the world, online and offline.

2. Real-time exchange rates

Say goodbye to confusing money changers. With the BigPay card, you’ll pay real-time exchange rates and nothing else. Whether it’s paying for your hotel, shopping or dinner, just transact with your BigPay card to automatically pay in the local currency of your travels according to the exchange rate at the time of purchase.

3. Withdraw money anywhere

Use your BigPay card to withdraw money from your BigPay account through any ATM overseas that accepts Visa transactions. No need to queue at the money changer.
