Avoid Post-Vacation Financial Regret

Planning your next getaway to Europe or Mexico? Here's a statistic that might surprise you: according to an EQ Bank survey*, nearly one in five Canadians experience financial regret after their vacation ends. For travellers under 35, that number jumps to 27%.

While 86% of Canadians are aware of travel-related fees, most still end up paying them anyway. Many standard credit cards charge a 2.5% foreign transaction fee on every purchase abroad, plus an additional $3–$5 for international ATM withdrawals levied by the bank.

These fees can really stack up—whether it’s gelato in Italy, dinner in Barcelona, a designer handbag in France, or your morning coffee.

The EQ Bank Card eliminates this problem entirely. It’s a prepaid reloadable Mastercard built with the savvy traveller in mind. EQ Bank does not charge any additional foreign exchange fees on foreign transactions— you just pay Mastercard's exchange rate. No surprises, no regret.

The card works in over 150 countries, so whether you’re island-hopping or exploring cities, you can spend like a local instead of a tourist paying premium fees.

Don’t let hidden fees steal your vacation joy.

These are the findings of a study/survey conducted by EQ Bank from May 16th to 20th, 2025 among a representative sample of 1,524 online Canadians who are members of the Angus Reid Forum. The survey was conducted in English and French. For comparison purposes only, a probability sample of this size would carry a margin of error of +/- 2.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.

Foreign currency transactions will be subject to the Mastercard Currency Conversion rate. EQ Bank does not charge any additional FX fee or markup. Sponsored by EQ Bank.
