How does Thomas Cook Cash Passport compare to Travellers Cheques?

The Thomas Cook Cash Passport is much more convenient than travellers cheques because you can use it to withdraw money directly from millions of ATMs and to make direct payments to millions of retailers worldwide. You can also reload the card with more funds at any time, even via telephone or online banking while you’re on your travels. Like travellers cheques, you lock in the value rate on the day of purchase, thereby avoiding possible exchange rate fluctuations or variances during your trip and allowing for tighter budget management.

How does Thomas Cook Cash Passport compare to credit or debit cards?

As the Thomas Cook Cash Passport is not linked to any of your bank or credit card accounts, these accounts remain totally separate. Also, the card doesn’t have your name or any other personal details on it, so your identity is secure if the card is lost or stolen.
The card is also available instantly and supported by award winning Global Emergency Assistance.
Finally, unlike many credit and debit cards, with the Thomas Cook Cash Passport any fees and charges are clear – you’ll know exactly how much an ATM withdrawal will cost you, allowing for accurate budgeting with no nasty surprises.
