Easy Overseasy

5
I always use my Staling card when I am abroad. It’s accepted everywhere - no need to carry wads of currency, a good exchange rate and peace of mind should it be lost as the account can quickly be frozen from any smartphone. I can also top up my account in a couple of clicks. It’s changed my travel experience!! Reviewed on: 28th January 2021
