???? The fans have spoken
We’re officially past the halfway mark of 2024. Weeks of buckling down and bracing the winter chill have many excited for the warmer, brighter months to come. (And they’re coming!)
During this time, Shyft users have capitalised on the rand’s recent upswing, buying forex at the competitive current exchange rate and locking it in for future plans. If you aren’t one of these early birds, what are you waiting for? You can make your travel and international shopping dreams come true by taking advantage of the rallying rand – buying forex when the rate is advantageous, and storing it in Shyft until you need it (indefinitely).?
We’ve always been passionate about making global travel and investment cheaper, easier, and more accessible. But don’t just take our word for it.
Read how three loyal Shyft users have leveraged our platform to take their international travel and shopping experiences to the next level.
“A friend recommended Shyft to me, and I couldn’t sing its praises louder. I’ve used it on two international trips and both times it delighted. The ease of buying forex beforehand was a joy. No more having to save up, ensure your local bank has the right currency, then queueing to get said currency. It’s all done from the comfort of my couch! I recommend Shyft to everyone.”
“I’ve been using Shyft (on recommendation from a friend) since 2020 when all I could do was sit at home, shop online and access international streaming services via VPN. With the extra time during the pandemic, I found international online stores that had products I would never find locally. Needless to say, Shyft transformed my online shopping (maybe a little too well)! The quick access to live exchange rates also makes my experience with the service even better.”
“I got Shyft in 2017 and got the cards as soon as I could! I travelled a lot in 2018 and it made travelling so much easier. I continued using Shyft in Switzerland when I lived there, sending money home and investing in stocks. Now back, I still use virtual cards for Amazon. Shyft made it all very simple!”
When plans to travel with friends finally make it out of the group chat, the real work starts. Booking flights, scheduling activities and buying forex can feel like a full-time job. We followed the adventures of a group of Shyft newbies to see how Mzansi’s #1 global money app and its slew of nifty features make travelling, shopping and buying forex painless!?
