I opened up a new bank account to save on ATM fees during a trip to Japan.
At the last minute, one more question came to mind: Did I need a new debit card for the trip?
The rest of my foreign payment strategiesIn my travel experience, the most important card you need while traveling is a credit card with no foreign transaction fees.
If you select your own currency, the credit card issuer may charge an extra fee for converting the funds.
When you take out foreign currency, you will have to get it converted back to your regular currency at the end of the trip.
