Applying for a travel currency card and using it abroad

Add a currency card (Euros or USD) to your personal or business bank account and benefit from no FX fees abroad.

Deposit up €5,000 or US $7,500 (depending on which currency your card(s) are in).

Log in to the Zempler Bank app or Online Banking.
Go to ‘Add-Ons’ and select ‘Currency card’.
Choose which card you want depending on the currency you need (if you want one for Euros and one for US dollars, just choose one and then repeat the process) and check/edit your details.
Once done, we'll get your card to you in 3-5 days.
Activate your card in-app or in Online Banking by going to Cards > Currency, or call us.
Request your PIN by calling 0330 024 0924.
Add funds to your currency card quickly and easily from your main Zempler account and transfer back what you don't spend just as quickly and easily.

If the transaction is in the same currency that the card is in, the purchase transaction is free.

You can make a purchase when you are in the Eurozone or online from a website that charges in Euros and there will be no purchase transaction fee.

Where a transaction is made in a currency that is not your card’s base currency (i.e. not Euro or US dollar), the relevant exchange rate will be the wholesale rate applied by Mastercard on the transaction date, plus the relevant Purchase transaction currency fee set out in the Currency Card Fee Summary.
If you use the card to make a withdrawal in the same currency that the card is in, there’s no charge.

Fees and charges may apply for withdrawing funds in a currency that is not your card’s base currency, and some financial institutions or associations may charge additional fees. For full information on fees and charges review the Currency Card Fee Summary.
No, if you’re not already a Zempler Bank Account holder you’ll first need to open an account with us before you can order a travel currency card.
