A deep dive on pounds

One of the oldest currencies in the entire world, British pounds date back to the 8th century and are the 4th most traded currency in the foreign exchange market.
The first decimal coins were introduced in 1968. In 2016, the polymer £5 note was introduced, making for a stronger, safer, longer lasting note.

What to consider when ordering your currency online

Thinking about the rate is just one consideration when it comes to getting your foreign currency, but don’t worry because we’re here to help make things really simple for you.

Check the rates – Use our handy currency rate tracker to check how rates change over time
Think about how much you need – Your budget will help you to work out just how much you need to take with you, depending on how long you’re going for, how many of you are going and how big of a spender you are!
How you want to get your money – If lining up to get your money isn’t your style, then you can order your currency to be delivered direct to your door. Alternatively, if you like to see a friendly face when you get your money, you can pick up at one of our stores across the US.

It was easy

It was easy. Choose the amount and choose when you want it delivered and done. And the exchange rate was reasonable. It was great be able to arrive in country with cash in hand and not have to search for an ATM. I was so glad I had done it because it was very hard to find an ATM that would take our cards.

Currency shipped directly to home at minimal shipping cost

I had not traveled internationally for a few years. When I started doing so again I had forgotten what a hassle and expense it can be to obtain foreign currency. Then I remembered Travelex. I got on line and looked them up. I was able to have currency for two different countries shipped directly to my home. It arrived very quickly with minimal shipping cost.

Money exchange

Lower cost than other money exchanges and safe way to exchange money. We'll hit the ground running with local currency in hand. Took a little more time than I expected because of verification with credit card company.

No more nearby location.

4 stars only because you no longer have a downtown Sacramento location where I can pick up my currency. Otherwise, great.
