Reservation of Travel Money

This internet ordering service (the "Service") is provided by Travelex Bahrain WLL.

These Online Terms and Conditions apply to the internet order service on the Website (the “Service”), which consists of an online reservation facility for foreign currency banknotes ("Travel Money"). You can also reserve our Same Rate Gaurantee Plus offer from the Website. Separate terms and conditions apply. Please click on this link Same Rate Gaurantee to view the relevant terms and conditions.

Use of the Service 

The Service is only available to individuals aged 21 years or over, and who are resident in and accessing the Service from the Kingdom of Bahrain. The Service may only be used to reserve Travel Money for holiday or business travel and not for speculative, investment or any other purposes. By reserving Travel Money from us, you confirm that you have read and understood the Online Terms and Conditions and agree to be bound by them and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations. 

The Service is only available for the currencies listed from time to time on the online ordering screen. All online orders are subject to a maximum value of BHD 2,000 per person per order. Currency availability may also be subject to further monetary limits, currency exchange restrictions and to customers complying with all applicable laws and regulations, including those relating to anti-money laundering regulations. 

Please note that the rates available on the Website are set separately from the rates provided in-store, and may therefore vary. You will not be able to get our Website rates in-store unless you have pre-ordered your currency through the Website.

Placing an Order

When you place your order, you will be given the option of whether you want to collect your order at the locations listed from time to time on the online reservation screen.

You can order up to 14 days in advance of the collection date. Selected currencies will be available for collection after 24 hours, provided that we receive and subsequently confirm your order by 3.00 p.m. AST. All other currencies will be available for collection after 4 days**, provided we receive and subsequently confirm your order by 3.00 p.m. AST. 

 ** Our 4 day promise applies to orders placed between Sunday to Thursday. If a currency is ordered before 3.00 p.m. AST on a Friday up until 3.00 p.m. on a Sunday, it will be available for collection the following Thursday.

To place an order, follow the instructions on the reservation screen. Once you have entered the reservation screen you must complete your order within 20 minutes otherwise your session may time out and you will have to restart the order process. You are able to correct errors on your order up to the point at which you click on "Reserve Now" on the reservation details screen. You will not be required to enter any payment details on our online reservation form – payment for your order will be taken from you on collection of your order.

Exchange Rates: the exchange rates we quote online are real time rates and subject to change. The exchange rate provided in your order is indicative of the rate you could receive at your chosen Travelex location. Please note that the rate may have changed (up or down) by the time you decide to purchase your currency, even on the same day.

Should you collect the currency you have reserved, the exchange rate applicable to your actual purchase shall be either:

The Website rate at the time of collection; or

The walk-up rate at the time of collection,

whichever is more preferable for you, our customer.

We reserve the right to request further information from you at any time to enable us to complete your order and/or to comply with regulatory requirements. By placing an order, you confirm that the details contained in the order are correct in all respects. The system will display a confirmation screen setting out the details of your order. This confirms receipt of your order. We may, at any time, decline to process your order or any part of your order for any reason. A contract between you and us is only formed when we send you a confirmation email that your order has been accepted. Please print a copy of the confirmation screen for your records and print or store the confirmation email in a safe place, as it will be the only record of your order.

Collecting Your Travel Money

You will be required to pay for your Travel Money on collection. Orders may only be collected by the person named on the order form from the Travelex location set out in your confirmation email. Collection is subject to the opening times of the collection location. Details for the opening times of the collection location will be notified to you at the time of the order and can be obtained on the Website. Please remember to allow sufficient time to make your collection before departing on your travels.

At the time of collection you will need to produce either a valid passport or photo ID card for identification purposes. Depending on your order, Travelex reserves the right to ask for further information and identification (such as proof of residential address) in accordance with its anti-money laundering policies. The name on any card used to make the purchase must match that on the identification document(s) used. In order to enable Travelex to comply with its anti-money laundering and other legal obligations and its internal risk and fraud policies, Travelex reserves the right to take a copy of your identification document(s) and the card used to make the purchase, at the time of collection.

Charges

Upon collection, you may pay for orders with most major credit or debit cards issued in the Kingdom of Bahrain registered in your name and with sufficient funds available to cover your order and any applicable fees.

[Credit/Debit cards may be subject to a card handling fee or cash advance fee set by the card issuer. If applicable, this will be shown within your order summary as a "credit card fee". If you choose to pay by Visa Credit or Debit card, your card issuer may apply a cash advance fee which will be shown separately on your Credit or Debit Card/Bank statement.]

Your Right to Cancel

You may cancel your order at any time prior to collection by contacting the Travelex location set out in your confirmation email. If you have not cancelled your order and you fail to collect your order from the nominated Travelex location within 72 hours of the collection time then your order will be marked as non-collected.
