Cactus customers can save over £46 if you use your Cactus Card for your holiday money, compared with a debit card issue by a high street bank.
This illustration is based upon existing customers making 1 x ATM withdrawal of £100 and 10 x transactions of £40. It includes all charges for the cost of the Cactus Card and loading fees via electronic transfer. New customers can save £38 (considering initial registration fee). This illustration is correct at time of writing (1st July 2009).
No additional charges when using your Cactus Card abroad
Cactus does not charge you an additional foreign exchange (FX) fee when you make a transaction abroad. With your debit or credit card this is around 2% of the transaction subject to a minimum of around £1.50
No commission on foreign currency conversion
Any transaction abroad will be converted at the market rate on the day. This is the cheapest rate available and can save you between 2% and 6% on the value of each transaction.
