AMERICAN EXPRESS® TRAVELLERS CHEQUES
BENEFITS OF TRAVELLERS CHEQUES
- Safer than Cash.
- Every 31 seconds, a British traveller abroad is a victim of theft.* And cash can't be replaced. That's why American Express Travellers Cheques make sense. They can be replaced virtually anywhere in the world - usually within 24 hours.
- Easy to Use.
- Travellers Cheques are easy to use. Simply sign the Cheques when you purchase them and be sure to keep a note of the serial numbers so that you are protected in the event your Cheques are lost or stolen. When you're ready to use a Cheque, just sign your name in the lower left-hand corner in the presence of the acceptor.
- Worldwide Acceptance.
- American Express Travellers Cheques are welcomed around the world. They're available in numerous currencies and denominations, and can be exchanged at banks, hotels, foreign exchange bureaus and American Express Travel Services locations. They are also accepted at a wide variety of shops and restaurants. For more information on using your Cheques, including encashment locations, please visit Where to Use Your Cheques.
- No Expiration Date.
- American Express Travellers Cheques do not expire, so you can save unused Travellers Cheques for your next trip. Just remember to sign your Cheques when you receive them and you're protected.
