A card that adapts to your needs

The Nedbank Travel Card can be loaded with up to 8 different currencies at the same time, depending on your requirements.

Secured and protected with chip, Pin and signature

Your card comes with a five-digit PIN to ensure that no unauthorised person will be able to access your funds.

When you purchase the Nedbank Travel Card, Nedbank will issue an additional card to you at no charge. This can be used as backup if the primary card is lost, stolen or damaged.

The Nedbank Travel Card is issued in association with Mastercard and is accepted globally at more than 34 million ATMs and merchant point-of-sale locations.

Remote topup

If you need to top up your Nedbank Travel Card while you are abroad, simply send an email to Nedbank RetailFX@nedbank.co.za and we will proccess your request.

Emergency cash

Should both cards be lost or stolen while you are travelling, call the Nedbank Contact Centre on 0860 555 111 and Nedbank will arrange emergency cash through one of our international Mastercard partners.

Reloadable

Your Nedbank Travel Card has a three-year lifespan. You will be able to reload your card multiple times if you travel again within the three year period.

Free cashout

No fees are charged when you cash out your card on return. 

A card that adapts to your needs

The Nedbank Travel Card can be loaded with up to 8 different currencies at the same time, depending on your requirements. The different currency balances are kept in separate pockets. 

Step 1: Select an amount in South African rands that you want to have loaded onto the card.

Step 2: Let us know which currencies you require.

We will then convert the rands to your chosen currencies at the prevailing exchange rate and load them onto your Nedbank Travel Card. You therefore do not have to worry about the exchange rate when you go shopping, as the rate is fixed at the time of purchase.

A card that is intelligent

If multiple currencies are loaded onto the Nedbank Travel Card, the card will automatically use the currency of the country where you are using the card. In addition, the Nedbank Travel Card can access multiple currency pockets to ensure that a transaction is approved. 

• US dollar                                   Euro
• Pound Sterling                          Canadian dollar
• Australian dollar                        Japanese yen
• Hong Kong dollar                      Israeli shekel                          

NB: These are subject to change.

Should your card be lost or stolen, please call the Nedbank Contact Centre immediately on +27 (0)860 555 111 to block it as soon as you realise that it is missing.

When you block one of the cards, the other card will remain active so you will still be able to spend abroad.

Before you travel

• Ensure that you sign the back of both cards, mainly to help merchants verify whether or not you are the owner of your card.
• Change the PIN to one you will remember. Each card can have a different PIN if you so choose. If you choose to use the PIN it is issued with,  memorise it and keep the printed PIN separate from your cards at all times.
• Remember to download the Nedbank App Suite™ from your app store and register your card on the Travel Card widget. This will ensure you can track your spend and always know what the current balances of your currency pockets are while you are travelling.

While you travel

• Always take the additional card with you when you travel and keep it in a safe place while you go sightseeing with your primary card.
• Use your card at ATMs to safely withdraw the currency of the country you are visiting.

When you return from your trip

• Ensure that you cash out the remaining funds on your Nedbank Travel Card, as required by the South African Reserve Bank.
• Store your cards and PINs safely so you can use them again when you travel in the future. Remember that the card has a three-year lifespan.

There are no transaction limits on the card, although some ATMs may impose a maximum withdrawal limit, which is outside our control.
