* Support Multi Currency! * Used currency is shown in History! * Can search History with Start Date and End Date! I get a GlobalMultiCard for traveling United States. It is so comfortable, but it doesn't send transaction through SMS... For checking available balance, I should sign-in GlobalMultiCard website every time. It was too TIRED for me. So I made this app! You can easily check available balance, and transaction history, with just input minimum account information same as sign-in GlobalMultiCard website. One more! I made 'Today' widget too! You can just swipe down to check available balance! The account information you put in app is NEVER used anywhere except fetching card information and transaction history from GlobalMultiCard website. The account information is ONLY saved in your iPhone, so... Don't worry!
