Our top choice for expats on a budget, the ABN Amro Credit Card offers excellent value for money and all the reliability you can expect from a traditional Dutch bank.
With worldwide acceptance and 180-day purchase insurance against damage or loss, it’s your best friend for making international payments.
And, speaking of going international, the card also carries a great set of features for globetrotters: you’ve got access to both luggage delay and flight delay insurance, ensuring that you (and your bags!) are exactly where you need to be within four hours.
Even better? Although this credit card is offered by a traditional bank, it comes with several modern bells and whistles, like contactless payments via your smartwatch and seamless app access.
Plus, you can forget about filling in endless forms at a brick-and-mortar bank — applying for the ABN Amro Credit Card can be done entirely online. In general, you’ll need to be over 18 and live in the Netherlands to apply.
In addition to the card being priced at a super-affordable € 2.05 per month, you’ll need to have a very reasonable net monthly income of at least €1,150 to be eligible. (Or freely-taxable capital of €20,000 at minimum.)
