The Northern Echo

The Northern Echo has recently confirmed an article which confirmed that the FairFX Anywhere Card is the card to use for Ryanair bookings.

The following is a snippet from the article:


“Ryanair, for example, charges £5 per person each way. That’s £40 return for a family of four – an amount likely to be vastly in excess of its payment processing costs.

“They get away with this by allowing people to pay with certain niche card types for free. Yet that tactic is unravelling. Previously, only certain specialist bank accounts offered these cards. Now the recent growth of pre-paid cards, which anyone can get and load up with cash before spending, means the game has changed.

“For almost all budget airlines except Ryanair, paying on a Visa Electron card is free. The cheapest prepaid version of this is the Travelex Cash Passport card, which is free, and just charges a small amount for top-ups. The undoubted winner in add-on charges, Ryanair has changed its payment policy. Out went free-pay on Visa Electron, and in came freepay on pre-paid Mastercards.

“The new card you need for Ryanair is the free FairFx Anywhere card. It charges only1.5 per cent of the transaction amount each time you use it.”
