Card for travel is a new trend among debit ones. They are always tied to your personal Bank account. Thus, you have access to your finances anywhere in the world wherever you travel. Here are two good reasons to start using a payment card for travel. First of all, traveling abroad with this one, you save money during currency exchange.
