So I am going to be out of town for a few days as I have to go to the US and I was debating if I should even bother getting American Cash or if I should just go with my credit card. Funny enough, it wasn’t so much about security which is why people go with things like traveller cheques instead of cash. Instead, I was thinking if it would be cheaper as you usually have to pay a huge fee to convert the money in the first place.
I know with my credit too there isn’t any fee to make international purchases other than it converts the currency to my local currency based on the rate. I thought too without cash it makes me less inclined to do things like purchase overpriced airport items as I am usually more conscious about buying things when I have to take out the credit card.
