traveler's checks
Portable guaranteed funds
Traveler's checks are preprinted checks in fixed denominations that travelers can use instead of cash.
The buyer signs each check when purchasing and again when cashing it, providing security against theft—if lost or stolen, they can be replaced.
I cashed some traveler's checks at the hotel.
Once common for international travel, they've been largely displaced by credit cards and ATMs.
