Today we will learn how to apply for and use the Travel Wallet card. These days, when traveling abroad, many people apply for a travel wallet with only a small amount of currency exchange. Travel Wallet can be used by recharging foreign currencies from various countries and the remaining money can be refunded.
Travel Wallet can be easily issued through a mobile application. First, download and install the application for free from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

Travel Wallet Card
The Travel Wallet Card is a foreign currency recharge card with no annual fee. With the Travel Pay recharge card, you can pre-charge up to 15 foreign currencies and make overseas payments and overseas ATM withdrawals without any fees.
Absolutely free overseas local payment fees
Charge 15 foreign currencies to one card
Recharge foreign currency at real-time exchange rates
Local ATM foreign currency withdrawal possible
Completely free overseas direct purchase payment fees
100% preferential currency exchange fee (zero fee)
There are no annual fees or commissions, so you can charge foreign currency to the card at the current exchange rate, and because you use VISA, you can make card payments without commission at 55 million stores around the world. So, I would like to recommend it as an essential overseas travel card after the Korana pandemic.
Travel Wallet Card Issuance
The most important thing when preparing for an overseas trip is travel expenses. Travel Wallet is a prepaid recharge card that, like a check card, allows you to recharge Korean Won with foreign currency at any time you want and use it as a card in your country.
You can withdraw cash and spend it, and upon returning from your trip, you can immediately refund the remaining balance in Korean Won. The advantage is that the overseas payment fee is 0%, the currency exchange fee is 0%, and 38 foreign currencies can be used.
Travel Wallet Card Issuance Procedure
1. Download/install Travel Wallet app
2. Sign up for Travel Wallet app
3. Application for issuance of Travel Wallet physical card
Travel Wallet withdrawal method
Let’s learn about how to withdraw cash overseas using Travel Wallet.
Insert card at overseas ATM
Enter card password
Select withdrawal amount
Once withdrawal is complete, remove card from ATM
Precautions when withdrawing money
The Travel Wallet card can only be used overseas and cannot be used at domestic ATMs.
Depending on your local ATM, your card may not be recognized. In this case, please try finding another nearby ATM.
Fees incurred when withdrawing money from an ATM are often charged by the ATM or card issuer, so please check in advance.
Additionally, Travel Wallet provides various benefits to minimize fees incurred when making overseas ATM withdrawals. In addition, we offer various discount benefits provided by our partner companies, so please make the most of these benefits while using Travel Wallet.
Travel Wallet Pros and Cons
As explained earlier, the advantage of the Travel Wallet Card is that the currency exchange fee and overseas payment fee are 0 won. In addition to this, it has the following advantages:
Travel Wallet Advantages
Transportation cards available (London, Barcelona, etc.)
Contactless function
A common European method of payment can be used by simply touching the terminal.
Card ON/OFF function
If the card is lost, the card can be turned off through the app.
Precautions when using the Travel Wallet Card
Since it is a rechargeable check card, you may have money left over or you may run out.
Minimum exchangeable amount is $50
There is a refund function to exchange the remaining foreign currency into Korean won, but the exchange rate is applied when selling, resulting in exchange loss.
Local ATM fees may apply, so you should check in advance which banks offer free fees before traveling.
In the case of Nha Trang, Vietnam, where I am planning to travel, only one VP Bank is free, and the remaining ATMs incur a fee of about 3,000 won.
Personally, I think it would be very useful to use Travel Wallet when going to major currency countries such as the United States, Europe, and Japan. However, if you are visiting other countries, it would be a good idea to exchange cash and use the Travel Wallet card at the same time.
finish
Recently, it has become possible to exchange and use foreign currency at a low cost through the issuance of a Trafple Wallet card with completely free fees. Now, we hope you can enjoy your overseas travel with the reasonable and cost-effective Travel Wallet Card.
