Spanish GP travellers urged to shop around for euros

Caxton FX, leading foreign exchange broker, is urging travellers heading to Barcelona for the Spanish Grand Prix on 10th May to seek out competitive exchange rates when they swap their pounds for euros and to avoid high commission and transaction fees.

Fans should get organized in advance so when they get to Barcelona they can concentrate on the race. Caxton FX's prepaid Global Traveller card allows Formula One fans to put their spending money on a protected MasterCard in advance with the exchange rate being set at the point of spending. The exchange rates are the best on the market. Caxton FX always beats the banks or the bureaus at airports. In addition the cards offer better protection from theft and fraud as losses are limited to the amount on the card.

The card itself is easy to use and there are no card fees. The complete online access is good so you can top-up, see your balance and transaction history wherever you are. The website also offers tips on how best to use your card to save money

Cardholders will not face a ‘foreign usage loading charge' when buying goods or drawing cash. Visit caxtonfxcard.com for more details.
