FairFX Card type

Hello,
I ordered a new FairFX US Dollars card, for my up coming holiday to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.
However, I was just on the website again and I think I have confused myself, as I now think I should have got the Anywhere Card, since I am not travelling to the US?
Is it OK to take the US Dollar card? All the countries accept dollars and in most places will give you dollars out of cash machine. Or does the USDollar card mean it can only be used in the US?
Thanks,
L.

The $$ card can be used anywhere in the world. Not sure of the charging structure, but it's definitely usable.0

Yes, you are right. You weren't the freshest biscuit in the box. Now you will suffer from multiple currency exchanges and withdrawal fees to boot. Not huge differences, but quite unnecessary.
The Anywhere card was the best choice, unless you were buying dollars at the top of a currency run.0
