Give your customers peace of mind with prepaid EMV travel cards

Your customers travel – whether for business, vacation or education – and increasingly these trips include destinations outside the U.S. Wherever your customers go, a convenient payment service is a necessity – to get cash in the local currency, for hotels, transportation and meals and, of course, to purchase gifts and souvenirs. Now, your cardholders can travel internationally without worrying about card acceptance in countries that prefer chip cards at the point of sale.

Offer your cardholders a safe, easy-to-use and low-cost payment option while traveling domestically or abroad. Prepaid cards are safer than cash, more flexible than traveler’s checks and accepted at millions of retailers worldwide. They are quickly becoming the preferred way to pay when traveling abroad. It’s the smart way to travel and enables your institution to earn revenue, too. And now through FIS™, NYCE® offers all NYCE financial institutions the FIS Prepaid EMV® Travel Card. With this reloadable prepaid chip and PIN card, cardholders can travel without worrying about card acceptance issues in countries that have adopted chip card technology as their preferred payment method for point-of-sale purchases.
