Tips about foreign currencies for travelers
Currencies
- Buy Currency Before You Go. Crossing borders on your next business trip? It's possible to buy foreign currency before you go, and have cash on hand for out-of-pocket expenses, from a cup of coffee to a taxi fare to a tip for the bellman.
- International Currency Express provides foreign cash and foreign-denominated traveler's checks. Orders are delivered to home or office; the "Currency Rush" feature allows you to order currencies by telephone or over the Internet. Rates are competitive to-and often beat-local banks and currency exchange firms. For more information, contact http://www.foreignmoney.com.
- SkyTeller does not charge a commission or transaction fee, and still its rates are competitive with what you will find at other foreign exchange outlets. For more information, contact http://www.skyteller.com.
- Chase's Currency To Go service provides overnight delivery, free when your total order is $500 or more. (Otherwise it's a flat rate of $10). There are no exchange fees or commissions, and you can order up to $1,000 in any of 75 different foreign currencies, foreign-currency traveler's cheques, or traveler's checks in U.S.dollars. You have your choice of having the money delivered to your door or local Chase branch the next business day.
