Travel is back for 2022! So once you’ve dug out and dusted off your Australian passport to travel, the next most important (and let’s face it, more fun) item to add to your packing list is a Cash Passport Platinum Mastercard® (“Cash Passport”).
As travel returns, it’s time to make the absolute most of it. But in a time of ongoing uncertainty for many, one thing is certain – in today’s world, travelling has got a lot more complicated.
So how do you navigate a safer, more contactless way of spending on your travels, like a pro?
Easy. Get yourself a Cash Passport and focus instead on the exciting elements of travelling overseas, like where to go, what to do, and of course, what to buy.
Taking cash on your travels has become a habit of yesteryear as today’s travellers are moving away from old notes and gnarly coins and preferring to pay electronically with the peace of mind of a simple tap.
Foreign Exchange (FX) has also changed significantly with accessing cash for travel much harder to come by these days, along with an increasing number of businesses not accepting cash.
Time for a new norm? Mastercard’s Cash Passport has never been more relevant and truly is the travel essential to add to your Australian passport as well as of course, a travel advisor to organise all your plans.
