Agree...just take dollars from here. You can then convert to Bali currency (better rate)once you go there. Also make sure to spend all the Bali currency there since it is worthless to convert it in India.

Niyo global. Using it currently  
 It has some downtimes but worth it. Used it to withdraw cash too. No twice charges on multiple currencies

The new NiYO global (blue one) is shit. It doesn’t even work internationally anymore. They ask you to get a weird credit card on FD or some bullshit like that. 
 The old one (black one with DCB bank) is the best fotex card in the country, but they don’t issue new ones for that now unfortunately

I used the SBM one, just last week. Not many problems though

Using Fi debit card right now in Vietnam. Worked like a charm. I used to use Niyo but had multiple transaction failures even when they were active and then the whole SBM crap - don't trust the card

Look at Scapia. Old DCB based niyo is no longer available

I've been thinking about this. 
 I've found my debit card work well- even with the forex fluctuations. 
 On a spend of 1L, you'll probably end up saving 1-2K only. Is it worth the effort of getting a new credit card?

If you have HDFC account I would suggest with HDFC regalia forex card, one of the best I think with reliable service

Hi Folks,

I will be travelling to the US in September end. I want some suggestions on how anyone who has been there makes their transactions. Do you use credit cards from your Indian banks, debit cards, or something like Niyo Global? To be honest, I have heard negative reviews of Niyo Global and how it has been shut down now. Can someone confirm this? Also, what could be the best way to make payments there? Thanks.

First post :)

Basically I want to figure out the best way to market a debit card for international spends.

We're offering zero forex, unlike literally anyone else. Just need to make more people aware of this offering since it's a big selling point. 

What is your experience with DCs from an international spends POV? What can be done better there? Any hacks to get people talking about it? 

Open to ideas/thoughts/criticism/feedback!
