Catch hidden card-terminal FX markups and ATM scams while you travel. Send a photo on WhatsApp, get the real mid-market rate in seconds.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built Travel Shield AI because I grew tired of feeling targeted by predatory banking traps every time I stood at a foreign ATM or retail checkout counter abroad.
We have all experienced that confusing terminal prompt asking whether we want to settle a bill in our "Home Currency" or the "Local Currency." These screens are intentionally engineered by global payment processors to exploit tired travelers through a multi-billion-dollar mechanism called Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC). By tricking you into selecting your home currency, they quietly pocket a hidden 5% to 15% markup on your purchase.
I wanted to design an antidote, but I also recognized a critical friction point: no one wants to download another bulky mobile application, create a new account, or input sensitive credit card details while standing in a fast-moving grocery or airport line.
Travel Shield AI delivers a zero-friction solution directly inside WhatsApp:
Snap a Photo: Take a quick image of the confusing payment terminal screen.
Text the Bot: Send it directly to our secure WhatsApp assistant.
Instant Premium Advisory: In under 3 seconds, our specialized AI vision engine parses the screen, calculates the hidden markups against live market rates, and returns a sophisticated, elegant directive showing you exactly which option protects your money.
By operating purely as a secure, data-driven utility, Travel Shield operates independently of your bank. It works universally across all credit and debit cards without requiring any financial onboarding.
We are celebrating our launch today by giving the Product Hunt community 10 free vacation scans to test the system completely free.
I will be active in the comments all day to answer your technical questions, discuss our backend security hardening, and hear your feedback. Where are you traveling next? Let’s keep your money exactly where it belongs—in your own bank account. ✈️🛡️
