Time is winding down for Holiday shopping, but it's not to late to give the gift of travel. With prepaid gift cards from ACE FX, you can order and pick up your card same day in London.
Perfect for students planning an upcoming semester abroad or a holiday trip this winter, a prepaid travel card is a wonderful way to say "bon voyage". They're also perfect for someone who seems to "have everything"...prepaid travel cards take the guesswork out of gift-giving! They're also a nice option to consider when you need a gift for someone who's so hard to shop for. If they have travel plans in their future, this is the perfect way to say "Happy Holidays".
Ordering is easy- maybe the fastest & simplest Christmas shopping you'll do. (Works for Hanukkah, too!)
Simply click on the "Home Delivery" tab and fill out the quick and easy form for ordering a card. You'll also see a place to order currency- we deliver that too! For gift-giving, most people prefer the convenience of prepaid gift cards. UK delivery is free, and ordering is secure on our website. You'll be done with checkout in minutes, then all you do is wait for your card to be delivered. Voila: gift-giving made simple! The only thing left to do once you've received the card is get creative with the wrapping. Many of our customers love to personalize the gift by packaging the cards in original, creative ways. After all, the way you present the card shows that your gift is coming from the heart. Here are a few ideas:- Some people like to put the card with a small gift which represents the theme of the gift: a travel book, for example.
- You could also slip the card inside a new wallet - or even better: a special travel wallet.
- For Hanukkah gifts, it's easy to find a crafty person who makes handmade Dreidel gift card holders.
- We've even seen people who purchase a large Dreidel and attach the travel card to the gimel symbol- the best spin!
- Tie it up with something pretty and useful. This is a spin on the "related items" idea from #1 on this list. A big bow always makes a nice visual, but if you can work something relevant into that bow, all the better. How about a set of earbuds, which everyone needs, especially when traveling. Choose a bright color- preferably in the recipient's favorite color!
