I downloaded the app and tried registering on it and it keeps freezing.


Ross, It's accepted anywhere that accepts visa

Edit, just as i typed that, i got this..

[/QUOTE]

Mine is just sitting on 'registering'. The demand must be overloading their system.

I've entered my details. I'm flying out on the 9th April to Sweden so it would be handy. I feel even if I had this I'd still need some cash. Last thing you want is to be paying then it say "sorry sir its been rejected". Even worse is they'll say that in Swedish. As banks do like to block suspicious activity.
I also wonder how well it would work online. I ordered some train tickets with my visa debit but I know the same train will cost more if I pay cash on arrival so it was worth it. the Visa exhange rate + 2.5% fee means it was about £3 extra than if I had one of these.

I looked - I didn't see how it works. I know you register your cards - but I couldn't find the section that explains that?

I'm assuming you register x number of cards and set one as a primary, and can then change which one the primary is using the app?

Right that makes sense. So you'd still need internet connectivity (which is fine) I just wasn't sure how it might work or how quick it would be at activating 1 over the other.

I've registered for one anyway as I go on a few holidays a year and currently use a FairFX card which has been brilliant.

I would expect the app to work that way. Can't log back in to see what is in the app because of the demand.
 
I can't get passed the security page on the app, the one with the password and agree to t&cs. Probably just the demand though.

Unless it's password related issue, but it's not saying password is not comparable. Just registration submission error. But retried several dozen times over the last hour.

Doesn't work with foreign cards yet, which is a shame. That will have to wait for an international rollout I guess.

Does it work with AMEX? Could be useful over the clarity if you can collect points, depending on the exchange rates used.

Now that's an interesting thought. Admittedly the UK fees make this pointless for use in this country, but if it really is a "Proxy card", it would presumably allow you to use an AMEX card anywhere that Visa is accepted?
 
Where is the app link? The site doesn't link to anything, just been saying it's under heavy demand and to try later, has been like that since I got the email 2 days ago... Will be handy in Canada soon.
