No ATM Withdrawal or Cash Disbursement Fees – Access cash overseas without paying extra

As international travel picks up pace for the summer season, BookMyForex (a MakeMyTrip Group Entity)-India’s largest online retail foreign exchange marketplace-has unveiled its all-new Global Forex Card, built to eliminate the hidden costs of spending abroad. Loaded in USD, the US Dollar denominated Single Currency Forex Card is accepted in over 200 countries. It offers unmatched savings with zero cross-currency fees, no ATM withdrawal or cash disbursement charges, and up to 2% cashback on zero markup forex rates.
This card is especially suited for students and travellers going overseas for employment, immigration, and to exotic locations such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Central Asia, South America, and other lesser-known destinations, as it does not entail any cross-currency charges.
Commenting on the launch, Sudarshan Motwani, Founder and CEO of BookMyForex.com, “While the appetite for international travel among Indians continues to grow, especially to emerging destinations like Vietnam, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Indonesia, the Philippines, Cambodia, and Azerbaijan, most existing forex products still fail to solve one of the biggest challenges – cross-currency fees and hidden conversion charges. Whether it’s credit cards, multi-currency cards, or even so-called zero-markup cards, travelers often end up paying 3% to 5% extra on every transaction when spending in unsupported local currencies. Add to that the burden of Rs. 300 to Rs. 800 ATM withdrawal fees, and managing money abroad becomes unpredictable and expensive. The Global Forex Card has been designed precisely to address these pain points and offer a smarter, more transparent solution for today’s global traveler.
At BookMyForex, we are committed to offering our customers the best-in-class forex products and solutions. This Global Forex Card, offered via our forex partner, reflects that promise. We are confident this card will set a new benchmark, and we anticipate a twofold increase in card issuance over the next year, driven by rising demand among frequent travellers and students.”
