UAE Exchange revolutionises globetrotting with gocash

Invention of the wheel gave movement to the world. Evolution of money increased its tempo. With it came the risks of carrying and using money in foreign lands. Evolution of plastic money brought some relief, but it still wasn’t foolproof. Both business and leisure travellers concerned themselves with these worries, awaiting a revolution to bring in a change.
UAE Exchange, the leading global remittance and foreign exchange brand, has always innovated for its customers. Thinking proactively for its customers’ convenience, the global money transferrer introduced gocash, the region’s first six-currency prepaid travel card.

Like every other product from UAE Exchange, gocash too received a warm welcome. The remittance brand’s principal membership with MasterCard gave an edge to gocash, giving it a wide acceptance across 34.3 million Point of Sale (POS) machines and 1.9 million ATMs. The traveller can use this unique card in a foreign land without worrying about fluctuating exchange rates, thanks to the exchange rate lock facility, which enables locking of the exchange rate prevailing at the time of loading the currency in the card. It then remains same till the next reload, saving money and ensuring peace of mind.

Customers can choose and load up to six currencies in a gocash card from a bouquet of 15. An authorised representative of the travelling customer can reload the card from any UAE Exchange branch across the UAE so that the traveller enjoys the convenience without hindrance. Its Chip and PIN feature further strengthens the security for the card. SMS and email alerts along with 24/7 customer care on phone and website www.gocashcards.com add convenience to the traveller.

* gocash is currently available for the residents of the UAE. Plans, to introduce it in other countries, are in the anvil.
