Paying for goods and services by credit card when travelling is so easy and convenient that most people don’t give a second thought. Credit cards are widely accepted worldwide, they’re often easier to use than cash and they’re often tied to loyalty programs. But convenience has a price.
If you are planning a trip and intend to use your credit card for the bulk of your purchases, here are some tips on optimizing how you use your card.
If your card provides travel insurance, double check your coverage. Travel arrangements must be paid with your credit card to be covered. Are the trip duration and insurance amounts sufficient? Probably not.
Purchase Blue Cross travel insurance before departing and enjoy our pre-departure assistance services. Protect your travel investment with trip cancellation or interruption insurance, regardless of how you paid for your travel.
