Hi all!
So I'm off to the USA in 1.5 weeks and I'm thinking of getting a travel card. Usually I just use my travel account with visa debit card which I have specially for travelling and then use my credit card but the fee to withdraw cash plus the currency conversion fees make it quite $$$....
Aus post load and go has the rate of .842 and qantas cash is .83. Current official aud to usd rate is .87 so the load&go and qantas cash rates aren't that bad considering I have to pay a 3% conversion and if the official rate drops then it makes it worse....
Which one would you go with? I'm probably looking at around $2000/$3000 personal spend on it, the rest will be put in a work credit card.
