I did a quick Google search on this but didn't find what I was looking for.
I would like to give a prepaid debit card denominated in euros to someone who will be traveling there. From what I saw in my search, if the card is denominated in US$ each use is likely to incur a hefty conversion fee to convert into euros. My thinking is that if I could buy one in the US already denominated in euros these fees might be avoided. Do such cards exist? Where does one get them? Are there hidden rip offs associated with them? Tales of any experience, good or bad, would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
