- Travel for business, or for pleasure, can require a great deal of preparation. Arranging your tickets, getting cash or traveler's checks and a whole host of other errands can take time and effort. Online banking can greatly reduce the amount of work necessary to make your trip successful.
Internet banking, through institutions such as NetBank, is convenient when it comes to planning a trip. Customers can perform any necessary financial transactions from just about anywhere in the world with an available Internet connection.
"Frequent travelers appreciate the value and convenience of doing business online," said Jerry McCoy, chief marketing executive at NetBank Inc. "Internet banking is in step with their lifestyle, and as a NetBank customer they can enjoy a convenient connection to their money no matter where their travels take them."
Travelers staying within the continental U.S. can make deposits to their Internet bank accounts while on the road. NetBank offers this service through any location of the UPS store, of which there are 4,100 in the U.S.
If you have a transaction pending and aren't going to be near a computer, Internet banks can often send an alert to your mobile phone or Personal Digital Assistant to let you know if an important deposit posted or debit cleared.
Another benefit of using NetBank for the international traveler is that you can order foreign currency or traveler's checks before leaving on vacation. They can even be delivered overnight, thus eliminating the hassle of taking time out of your busy schedule to wait in line at a local bank.
In addition, orders can be made in more than 75 currencies using Visa or MasterCard credit or debit cards. With orders of $750 or more, NetBank offers free two-day shipping. For any amount, there is a 100 percent guarantee, and refunds if orders are not received in a timely fashion.
Through NetBanks's partnerships with several travel-related companies - including U.S. Airways, United Airlines and Marriott Rewards - customers can earn bonus miles or rewards points just for opening a NetBank account.
