“I think probably it would have, just a button on the app where you can click to say you are abroad and that they don't need to flag up your account as stolen and all this type of thing. It would have, local offers, local deals available to the place you're in, so it'll give you sort of discounts at local businesses to the location you go to. So it it would cultivate with, what's the word? Not cultivate. It would curate curate the offers based on what country you're in. So if you go to, say, let's say, France, it will give you offers on local businesses, and it would work with local companies, local businesses, and it would sort of tap into what offers are available and show you those. Because, if you're traveling around a country where there's not a huge amount of English, which is on signs and different things like this, it's not gonna be not gonna be easily accessible to you, sort of certain offers and things like that. So it would have that sort of thing. It might have a cashback feature built in so that if you were sort of supporting local small businesses, you would get a bit of cashback and that type of thing. It would also be, free to try free to use in any country, so it wouldn't you wouldn't have kind of conversion headaches or charges for using it in in other countries. It'd be one that sort of works in all countries equally.”

Having I think that would be would be awesome to have, you know, and so you wouldn't have to really do a Google search. You just open up your credit card app, and, you know, these are the the the top things that people are, you know, doing in your area.”

“How do I think cards such as that can encourage you encourage me to explore? Well, man, I mean, I if if I know I'm gonna get more cash back from doing a certain, outing, certain activities, so certain local experience, I'm certainly gonna be more likely to do it. I probably will do it because you're already spending so much money. The cashback's worth it if it's there. So that would that would greatly encourage me. I'd I'd probably do anything that has a higher cashback rate at the same time for the cashback, but also to explore.”

“So one of the most important thing would be the security. It should be secure payment, where we don't have to worry about, you know, paying for the conversion rate. So it's a more important thing. And, secondly, where it's also just tap and pay, and it's not, like, something that we have to, you know, give, on, like, a surcharge. There should be no surcharge on that as well. So my dream payment card would be obviously which is, you know, convenient and easy to use, which is used, which can be used all over the world at all the places, be it an airport, be it a small cafe, be it a bar, be it a five star hotel. So it should be, you know, it should be it should it should be usable at all the places, without having to pay any, you know, surcharge, without having to pay any extra fee. And the perks I would, like would be, like, I should get access to some discounts or some, you know, free gifts and, some premium memberships on some clubs or some participating, you know, stores or something like that.”
