### "Simple the best for our FX needs"

June 11, 2024

5.0

Pros

The personal touch, the ability to issue staff with debit cards with no monthly fee and the competitive rates achieved on larger currency forward purchases. I liek the expert knowledge and the friendly helpful answers from \[sensitive content hidden\] when I have a query about timing my currency purchases. The knowledge that he and his colleagues have can't be replicated on an app or a website.

Cons

The reporting side of things is poor. You really need to be able to generate reports that save time on bookkeeping and to do that a single report showing transactions in and out in date order for all cards and including all forward purchases (i.e. combine the transfers and cards sections and include all cards rather than having to pick one at a time)

Switched from

[Soldo](https://www.capterra.com/p/194308/Soldo/)

Soldo introduced far higher fees and became greedy. As a seasonal business I don't want to pay every month in the off season just to keep an account alive.

### "Convenient and Reliable Travel Card with Minor Drawbacks"

September 30, 2024

5.0

My overall experience with Caxton has been mostly positive. The multi-currency functionality is incredibly convenient, and the competitive exchange rates make it a go-to for travel. The app is easy to navigate, and the card is widely accepted worldwide. However, the ATM fees and inactivity charges can be frustrating, and I wish the customer service hours were more flexible. Despite these minor issues, Caxton remains a reliable and secure option for managing money while traveling.

Pros

What I like most about Caxton is the convenience of managing multiple currencies with ease. The competitive exchange rates are a big plus, and the app is simple to use. I’ve had no issues using the card globally, and the security features give me peace of mind. Their customer service has been great too—always quick and helpful!

Cons

One thing I like least about Caxton is the ATM withdrawal fees, which can add up when traveling. Also, the inactivity fees are a bit frustrating if you don’t use the card frequently. I’ve found the customer service hours a bit restrictive, especially when in different time zones. Additionally, it would be nice if you could lock in better exchange rates at certain times, and the limits on currency loading can be a drawback for larger transactions.

Thank you so much for your review of our retail card. Caxton absolutely charge no fees for using ATMs - this fee is taken by the ATM that you are using - and yes we agree its rarer and rarer to find those free ATMs. That's why we offer next day delivery of holiday cash before you go, which you can order from the app. You can also lock in exchange rates with a forward contract on international payments or with a travel savings plan. Thanks again for your feedback and best wishes for you trip!

### "Excellent Company with Excellent Customer Service"

June 11, 2024

5.0

Nothing short of Excellent..... Severe difficulties withe App on my phone which eventually we will over come.

Pros

the Customer service provided by \[sensitive content hidden\].

Cons

This is not just a criticism of Caxton, its of ALL U.K. Banks. Compliance has gone WAY TO FAR and OVER BOARD. British Banks are killing Trade and Business and giving it all away to the USA, who are a lot more open minded and TRULY WANT Business.....Many years ago, \[sensitive content hidden\] stated the Britain was open for Business....In my opinion, that is the last thing this Country is open for these days.....

### "Excellent ease of access and good value"

June 25, 2024

4.0

Pros

I returned to Caxton after a break of several years, as I was going on holiday abroad for the first time in a while. Previously, I had also regularly used Caxton to settle my large Euro invoices but the impact of Brexit has curtailed my purchases in the EU. My account was still open and a previous sterling sum was still waiting for me. I was able to use my pre-loaded card easily and without problem while travelling abroad and welcomed the opportunity of a great deal.

Cons

There was nothing I disliked about the Xaxton service

### "Easy Payments"

June 11, 2024

4.0

Pros

We like the fact we can use multiple currencies for payments which helps us to circumvent pesky transaction charges from the bank (in addition to the banks poor FX rate)

Cons

The customer service can be slightly slow / lacking at times. Often require to make multiple phone calls to get through, or emails need chasing multiple times.

### "Caxton for Schools"

November 15, 2023

5.0

It's great, no real problems and an excellent solution for teachers not having to carry cash or use thier own personal bank cards whilst on school trips.

Pros

Ease of use, ability to give staff on school trip and safe and covneient method of payment when overseas. No longer need to order and collect currency from the bank.

Cons

It would be ven better if we could upload money using our school purhcasing cards rather than have to do a bank transfer

Reason for choosing Caxton

Online portal, multi currency, ease of use

### "Easier than a bank"

October 4, 2023

5.0

we needed a business banking alternative and caxton offered simple cards and we use their accounts payable function for business holding accounts because we operate in multiple currencies

Pros

its easy to hold multiple currencies for accounts payable and receivable - we dont have to convert foreign money before we pay it out in same-same currency arrangements

Cons

no email notifications for expense cards are a bit tedious but at least it keeps the team spending in check!

Reason for choosing Caxton

we changed from a bank because the bank did not offer the curency requirements that we had and they were extortionate to exchange funds

### "Easy to use and inexpensive"

June 11, 2024

5.0

Very happy with my overall experience, had superb help from customer service if ever needed

Pros

This was recommended to me by another small business owner and is a far better way than using my bank to make international payments and purchase currency.

Cons

Nothing I do not like about the service

### "multi currency cards"

June 11, 2024

5.0

Very satisfy, I have used other system and providers before. Caxton meets our needs and I feel better customer services. The system is simple to install and apply. It has multiple currencies functions which meets the needs for our international teams.

Pros

Easy to use, good customer care. I get reply and response quickly from my contact. The system is simple to use and very effective. It saves time and many report options. I feel that this is a best system we have ever.

Cons

None. I just don't have time to explore other functions yet, but nothing to do with Caxton. I am planning to implement other options and have meetings with Caxton, they all seem good and will help us to improve our system. I just need time and gradually to try them on.

### "Better service than banks"

November 5, 2023

5.0

We were set up quickly in just a few days, compliance checks were swift and appropriate. We used the account for accounts payable in multiple currencies and it works very well for this

Pros

We had an account manager who was able to help set us up quickly.

Cons

We were using for payments and that's exactly what they do so they haven't overstretched, and the service is good.

### "Customer Service"

June 11, 2024

3.0

Mixed feelings and I think I will only use it short term, I don't think I will be renewing the account next year. If it hadn't been for the help from \[sensitive content hidden\], I think I would have thrown in the towel!

Pros

\[sensitive content hidden\] was exceptional providing instructions, clear and concise and easy to follow. He was always at the end of an email with a speedy reply.

Cons

I felt I didn't have much help when trying to set up the account, it was a case of I paid the cost to set up now just get on with it!

Reason for choosing Caxton

I chose it as another school in our MAT used and recommended it, although charges had been introduced after they had joined.
