Protect Your Credit While Traveling

Posted - June 23, 2017

You’ve come to rely on AAA’s advice and assistance to keep you safe on the road. Generally, the safety message is about driving, car care or what to do if your vehicle breaks down. Equally important is the need to safeguard your personal information when traveling and protect your credit.

That's why AAA provides Visa TravelMoney® cards to members for a low fee. Accepted at millions of Visa merchants and ATMs worldwide, this prepaid card gives you all of the benefits of a credit or debit card but none of the dangers you face using cash or your own credit or ATM cards. Funds are limited to the amount you place on the card, and it's not connected to your personal bank or credit information, so thieves can't access your accounts.

Why choose a Visa TravelMoney® card for your next trip?
• It’s welcomed anywhere Visa is accepted.
• You get emergency card and cash replacement virtually anywhere in the world, generally within one business day.
• It’s perfect for multiple destinations where you’ll need a variety of currencies. And the low 3 percent exchange service fee is a great value.
• You can reload the same card as many times as you wish.
• Link up to four cards on the same account as a security measure or for family members.
• You’re not responsible for fraudulent use of a lost or stolen card.
• Plus, get travel benefits like luggage reimbursement,90-day Purchase Security protection to replace stolen or damaged purchases, translation assistance, medical and legal referrals, emergency trip arrangements, and emergency messages to relatives.
