"Our most active and loyal users have been Americans and Canadians, who deposit an average of over $25 per transaction through our kiosks on other continents," said Tomer Zussman, founder and CEO of TravelersBox. "We're excited to be able to provide this service to our dedicated customers and to all travelers from around the world."
Travelers can use TravelersBox kiosks located in airports throughout the world to deposit their leftover foreign coins and bills directly into online accounts including PayPal, gift cards (iTunes, Starbucks, Skype, Gap, and more); or to make a charitable donation before leaving a country.
TravelersBox solves a common problem facing anyone traveling abroad: local currency accumulated during the visit usually ends up left in a drawer and forgotten, with significant lost value accruing over more travel. TravelersBox's kiosks use proprietary technology and an intelligent financial process to facilitate the complex process of converting physical currency of one country into digital currency for another.
In each country the machines accept the local currency and other popular currencies in the area. A complete list of airports with TravelersBox kiosks can be found at www.travelersbox.com/#map.
