Now that we’ve retired, my husband and I have decided to let our hair down and go on the adventure of a lifetime. We’re so excited! We’ve packed up all of our things, put them into storage, put the kids on notice, rented our house. The only thing left on our list was to find a way to easily exchange our money when we’re on the road, and staying up to date with the latest exchange rates. That’s when we found the Westpac currency converter app, through Air Kiribati.
Because exchange rates are always fluctuating, the Westpac currency converter app has been a lifesaver. Of course, I monitor exchange rates through the ANZ currency exchange rate website and get emails about NAB exchange rates but nothing is as compact and user friendly as the Westpac app. As I said, we’d prepared and organised as much as we could, but with the fluctuating exchange rates we decided to leave this task until last so we’d get the best possible deal on exchanging our money.
Our patience paid off! Using the app, we were able to get the best possible rate just a week before we left and had the option to either exchange the cash at a Westpac branch or do everything online from the comfort of our home. I was in such a rush running last minute errands, I decided to do everything online. I simply decided on an amount, entered in my details to a secure server, confirmed my identity and the money was exchanged into dollars and transferred into my account in a matter of minutes. This was the last step and we were readier than ever to hit the road!
Using the app and the online currency exchange platform was quick and easy, I have recommended the Westpac currency converter app to friends and family time and again because of its ease of use – even my husband can do it! But what I was really the most impressed with was the level of security embedded into the program. There’s steps at every point that check and confirm your identity – but not so many that it’s a trying experience. These security measures made me feel safe in the knowledge my money was in good hands – it was no small sum either, let me tell you!
