Principally I am using Starling as a debit card system during my business and holiday trips. As the card is a MasterCard this means you can use it virtually anywhere in the world to make payments or draw local currency cash without having to pay a withdrawal fee. Also the MasterCard relevant exchange rate at the time of the transaction is used to calculate the currency exchange. NO FEES.... Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
