Travelling Abroad? Here's What You Need to Know
If you're planning a trip to another country, it's important to know that your Mukuru Card will not work outside your home country. This means you won’t be able to use it for shopping in stores, buying online, or withdrawing cash from ATMs while abroad.
Why Can’t I Use My Card Internationally?
The Mukuru Card is designed to work only in the country where it was issued. This helps us follow local financial rules and keeps your money safe. If you try to use your card in another country, your transaction may be declined or your card temporarily blocked.
What Should I Do Instead?
To make sure you have access to money while travelling, here are some helpful tips:
- Withdraw cash before you travel and carry it in the local currency.
- Use a bank card that works internationally for purchases and withdrawals.
- Speak to a Mukuru agent to explore other ways to send or receive money in the country you're visiting.
