Yes, you can use your trade dollars overseas, but not through Eftpos terminals like in New Zealand. You can use Bartercard in Australia, UK, Thailand, Rarotonga in the Cook Islands, Samoa, Fiji. 

Just like the New Zealand trade dollar is tied to our local currency (NZ$), trade dollars in other countries are tied to their local currency, therefore local currency exchange rates will apply at the time of transaction.  

We’d recommend you contact our Bartercard Travel Team on travel@bartercard.co.nz with where you are traveling and they can provide you with regional spending options.
