From England to France and from Austria to Greece, the wonders and experiences are different but well, so are the currencies! With IndusInd Bank’s Multi-currency Travel Card, however, you don’t have to worry about multi-currency transactions and exchange rates.

So if you want to spontaneously take a train to another country in Europe, the IndusInd Multi-currency Card has got you covered. 

Making online payments for sight-seeing

When in Europe, there are numerous stunning museums, art galleries and other tourist spots that are a must-visit. Whether it’s the Vatican Museums, which include the Sistine Chapel, in Italy or the Louvre Museum in France, these landmarks attract thousands of tourists every day. This means hours upon hours spent standing in long queues for tickets. You can skip all that hassle and pre-book the tickets online using your forex card. 

Such quick, convenient and easy transactions will save you time, allowing you to fit more fun adventures in your day. In addition to saving you time, it will also help you keep track of your spending since each time you make a payment using the IndusInd Forex card, you’ll receive a confirmation message.

No matter the budget you set for shopping before your trip, you may be tempted to exceed it when you see the perfect watch in Zürich or catch a whiff of the most amazing perfumes in Paris. 

You don’t have to leave any of those things that your heart is set on behind due to shortage of funds.
