American Express Travel Tips - Smart Ways to Pay

Smart Ways to Pay

No matter where you travel, it's always important to carry a variety of payment methods:

For major purchases like airline tickets or hotel bills, use a charge or credit card.
A safe travel payment method is travellers cheques. Travellers cheques are ideal for daily expenses like meals and admission tickets. They can make it easier to budget and track expenses.
You should also carry a small amount of cash for small expenses like cab fare. But remember that unlike travellers cheques, stolen cash cannot be replaced. If American Express Travellers Cheques are ever lost or stolen, they can usually be refunded within 24 hours worldwide.
