Frequently Asked Questions
Who offers the best norwegian krone travel money rate today?
Post Office leads at 12.6990. For card spending, Wise gives the mid-market rate (12.5178) minus ~0.55% fee – effective rate ~12.4490. On £500, Post Office delivers kr6,349.50 vs Barclays kr6,298.70 – a kr50.80 difference.
Is M&S Travel Money safe if it's not FCA regulated?
M&S Travel Money is HMRC MSB regulated – the standard framework for all UK bureau de change. The service is now operated by Ignite FXCorp (Eurochange subsidiary) since spring 2025. For a dispute, HMRC rather than the FCA is the relevant authority. The service is not unsafe, but consumer protections differ from FCA-regulated services.
Should I buy cash or use a card for Norwegian Krone destinations?
A Wise card at the mid-market rate outperforms all cash providers on like-for-like in card-friendly destinations. In practice, carry some cash for markets, taxis and small vendors; use Wise for restaurants, shops and larger purchases. For destinations where cash is essential, a specialist like Post Office is the right choice.
What does “Travelex white-label” mean for Tesco and Sainsbury's?
Neither Tesco nor Sainsbury's operate their own travel money infrastructure. Both use Travelex as the backend for rate-setting, currency supply and fulfilment. Rates tend to be similar between the two but can differ slightly by day; compare both on this page before ordering.
