### 2/5 — Can’t manage cards through the app

*2026-03-08, version 9.5.9*

Used to work fine, but for some reason can no longer manage cards through the app and have to go the website, please sort this out.

### 4/5 — Caxton

*2025-03-10, version 9.4.0*

Why oh why can you not load Caxton directly from your bank account

### 4/5 — very helpful in most countries

*2025-02-02, version 9.4.0*

not sure about your exchange rates?

### 5/5 — Slick and love the customer service

*2024-08-22, version 9.3.5*

Since the update I’m see a big difference and I’m really impressed with the UI/UX overall. Big improvements on the app that fit the great service I’ve received when I needed to call in to sort a couple of problems.

### 3/5 — Saves money but…

*2024-08-05, version 9.3.5*

…it’s not accepted everywhere where we’ve been to in either Italy or Spain so we’ve often had to use our normal credit cards anyway.  My husband doesn’t even bother trying to use it now and thinks it’s really not worth the hassle and is happier to accept the transaction costs of our usual credit card.  Don’t think we’ll be using it after this holiday.

### 5/5 — Mrs Lynn Watt

*2024-07-21, version 9.3.5*

Great card great rate easy to use

### 3/5 — Great service, poor rates

*2024-07-18, version 9.3.5*

Easy to use and to top up, but rates are worse than high street so you’re definitely paying for the convenience.

### 5/5 — Must have card

*2024-07-17, version 9.3.5*

This is a must have card in your possession.
It makes life so much easier when abroad, the loading of multiple currencies makes life so much easier.

### 5/5 — Easy Foreign currency card

*2024-07-15, version 9.3.5*

Simply the Best

### 5/5 — Almost perfect

*2024-07-08, version 9.3.5*

I like the freedom of my preloaded card , I have had Caxton for some years now and haven’t as yet been let down in any country I have used it in . If I had one tiny complaint it would be the fact that I can only add multiples of fifty pounds at one time, I know that I would sometimes like to put in twenty , thirty or forty and the fifty minimum is restricting. I believe that more young people like my son and nephews ( who range from in years from eighteen to twenty seven ) would enjoy using a Caxton card if they could lodge smaller amounts. However as I said it is a tiny observation.

### 2/5 — Transactions are not shown

*2024-07-02, version 9.3.5*

The app just shows a balance but doesn’t seem to report any transactions, so I have to log in to the Caxton web site to see entries. Confusing because it means I’m not sure if the card balance in the app includes or excludes pending transactions that *do* appear on the web site.

### 4/5 — Mrs

*2024-06-10, version 9.2.2*

Caxton need to update its systems to reflect current spending and be able to produce a comprehensive statement on balance and expenditure as your competitors do.
I am a loyal long term user and shareholder but this is an area you should improve on.

### 5/5 — Mrs B

*2024-06-03, version 9.2.2*

Excellent service

### 5/5 — Graham smith

*2024-04-17, version 9.1.9*

We have had many travel cards this is by far the easiest to manage and top up with no issues.

### 5/5 — Caxton App user

*2024-03-28, version 9.1.9*

Once you navigate all the options, the App is very easy to use. Not only you can check your card’s transactions, but also send international transfers!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-01-25, version 9.5.8*

Don’t use these cards! My card keeps getting blocked when I’m overseas. I can’t draw money from the atm or make purchase. Support team either don’t get back to you or take 3 days to do so!!

### 1/5 — Support Service lying and not giving valid info!

*2024-10-05, version 9.3.5*

Called support service to double check if the card will be working in another country I was travelling to and they said it will! When I arrived it was not working although I know and checked everything and the card was working in other countries. 
Will not be using this service again!

### 1/5 — Awful awful awful

*2024-07-23, version 9.3.5*

Do not touch!!!
I opened an account a couple of months ago.
I didn’t use it until recently and sent 3 payments from family , sent to me for my dads 80th birthday celebration
My account was instantly frozen when I tried to access the money.

Absolute thieves, and a joke.
Do not engage with this company

### 1/5 — Declined card

*2024-06-28, version 9.3.5*

Card declined 3 times on account at differentvplaces. Spent hours with Caxton trying to sort. Their error and do not know why??? 
Am praying now fixed???

### 1/5 — Switch limit

*2024-05-03, version 9.1.9*

Keeps telling me I have reached a switching limit. Surely as long as money on the card in any currency it can be switched

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work anymore

*2023-10-09, version 9.1.0*

Can’t log on using app,so can’t see transactions or load card. 
Can only be done via laptop, which I won’t have on holiday. Pointless now, and used to be excellent.

### 1/5 — What’s wrong with the App!

*2023-09-29, version 9.1.0*

Been using Caxton for years and was delighted to see you now have Apple Pay, however I can’t seem to log in to the App anymore with it saying wrong password but the paaawors works online.

### 1/5 — New update useless

*2023-09-13, version 9.1.0*

Updated today and now the app doesn’t work. How am I supposed to check my activity or top up. Useless

### 1/5 — Can’t get my money

*2023-09-01, version 9.0.11*

In Spain now, card declined twice, won’t let me log in to app or change password just comes up with error. I WANT MY MONEY BACK.

### 1/5 — Pointless App

*2023-08-25, version 9.0.11*

Since upgrade to version 9, I can no longer log into the app, get ‘unexpected error’ every time. Not account issue as can log into website without issue.

### 5/5 — Quick and easy

*2026-02-09, version 9.5.9*

Used my Caxton for each foreign trip and it works great .

### 5/5 — 5 star Caxton

*2026-01-12, version 9.5.8*

Love my Caxton Card. Makes life so easy when on holiday & always great exchange rates

### 5/5 — Works great as a card or in Apple Wallet

*2025-12-28, version 9.4.1*

This app is great for keeping track of your pre paid card spending with real time updates while overseas. Would be even better if it was one of those apps available to Honest mobile’s smart data sim to give real global ease of use

### 5/5 — Easy to use.

*2025-06-02, version 9.4.1*

I use the card and app to pre-load Euro and Dollars when travelling. Very easy to load and use. Secure transfer of money from a linked account is slick. Rates are competitive and no fees abroad.

### 5/5 — Quick and easy

*2025-05-28, version 9.4.1*

Really easy to use idea for the older generation

### 5/5 — Holiday Card

*2025-02-10, version 9.4.0*

Would recommend having this card so easy to use

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-12-10, version 9.4.0*

Used Caxton for many years globally & easy to use, accepted everywhere

### 5/5 — Caxton card

*2024-12-02, version 9.4.0*

We have used a Caxton card for the last 7 years as we have travelled to the US and Europe. The app is easy to use and to add money when needed is no problem at all!

### 5/5 — Great back up

*2024-11-15, version 9.3.5*

Love my Caxton card and the flexibility it gives me to top up quickly and control spending. Also like to top prior to travelling as a savings account. Assume minimum £50 top up is to keep costs down.

### 5/5 — 100+ years great app

*2024-10-18, version 9.3.5*

I’m fairly sure I’ve been with Caxton longer than 4 years, but maybe not quite 100. 

I love this app because of the ease with which you can pre buy currency local to your next holibobs in advance. And if, like myself, you know the value of walking into a restaurant already a local bajillionaire, you will understand why I prefer to buy currency before planning a trip there. But, only if the FX rate is favourable of course.

And then, you have the GOAT of all daily bulletins: Mr Michael Brown. He got me through some long years and tough times with his -dry as- attitude to political commentary. I wonder if he’s ever considered a career as a political cartooooonist. Or maybe he’s sould his soul to the JPMorgan Chase bajillionaires across the water. *shrug* … *drop mic*

Keep up the good work team! Thanks for all my millions you’ve helped me launder (;
