Rate Move Guarantee

Rate Move Guarantee (in store only)

The need for protection is equally as important in the bedroom as it is when buying your travel money.

That’s where Travel Money Oz comes in. Rate Move Guarantee is our way of protecting you from exchange rate movements. If you purchase foreign currency in store and the retail exchange rate improves within 14 days, you’ll get the difference*.
Still don’t think you need to use protection? Have a look at this real life example.

When purchasing Japanese yen...

Exchanging AUD 2000 on the 8th of October would leave you with 137,781 yen. 9 days later, on the 17th of October, the same amount would have given you 140,672, a whopping 2891 yen more - around $40 AUD. That’s a lot of ramen...

When purchasing euro…

Exchanging AUD 2000 on the 5th of August would have given you 1155 euros. 14 days later, on the 19th of August, the same amount would have given you 1187.20 euros. Aka an extra 32.20 euros or an extra croissant or two for every day of your two-week European holiday.
