Travelex Supercard / 0% purchase credit card

in Credit cards
Good afternoon,
I'm hoping someone might be able to help. I need to find a cost effective way of spending abroad (not withdrawing cash). Can someone tell me, if I were to get a travelex supercard and linked it to a 0% purchase credit card, would I benefit from the 0%?
I.e if I got a Credit card with 20months 0% on purchases, linked it to the supercard which I then use abroad, would I have 20months to pay off the spending I've made whilst on holiday?
Many thanks
Nick

Yes that correct as the Supercard transactions come up as purchases.0

Brilliant thank you for the reply.
So just to be sure i understand before I start applying. The purchases I make abroad on the supercard will show up as UK purchases on the credit card? So even if the credit card doesn't have 0% on oversea's purchases, you'd still get the benefit of any 0% on purchases that the CC has?
