Buy Currency

The Travelex Buy Back Promise

We’ll buy back your leftover currency after your holiday, so that you don’t lose out on any unspent currency.

What is the Travelex Buy Back Promise?

Do you often find yourself with leftover currency at the end of your holiday? We’ve all been there! After all, it’s not always easy to know exactly how much travel money you need to take with you. 

Here at Travelex, we pride ourselves on making your trip abroad as easy as possible, and our Buy Back Promise means that you’ll never have to leave your leftover currency sitting in your drawers waiting for your next holiday. 

All you need to do is take out our Buy Back Promise when you buy your travel money and, after your trip, we’ll buy back your leftover currency from you at the original transaction exchange rate. For a fee of just £4.99, we will buy leftover foreign currency up to a maximum of £250. Any value above this limit will be completed using the applicable rate on the rate board. 

What’s more, by exchanging all of your money in one transaction before you leave, you’re likely to save money from avoiding the potential fees and charges from converting more money abroad.
