When it comes to travel money, there are several options available. A prepaid travel card is a good option to stay protected against theft as it is not linked to your bank account. However, these cards can come with expensive fees. To avoid foreign transaction fees, you can load your prepaid travel card with Australian dollars before your trip. Caxton offers a free pre-paid travel money card that you can access via a website or mobile app. You can top up your card and lock in exchange rates ahead of your trip.
If you don't want to get a prepaid travel card, you can use a credit card without foreign transaction fees. Cards are widely accepted in Australia, but it is a good idea to carry some cash for the odd restaurant or shop that doesn't take cards or charges extra for card payments. You can get cash through ATM withdrawals, but most international banks and card providers charge a fee for using their ATMs. If you use a debit card, you can avoid foreign transaction fees and ATM fees. You can also exchange US dollars at a bank, but the conversion rates at the airport are usually not favourable.
