No, a debit card is usually associated with money in a current account.williewonder said:does world debit mean commission free cash withdrawals aboard?
Commission free withdrawals abroad are only available if it is a feature of the account...0 -

With regards to the world “Word Debit” on the Starling MasterCard, this is one of the card levels offered by MasterCard, the same way Visa has Signature, Infinite etc. MasterCard has had the versions World and WorldElite for a while and each would be supported by some International/Travel benefits if the Card Issuer signs up to it. For example World Elite Cards (the one with a Silver MasterCard logo) could have Concierge services and other benefits but more often then not (especially in the UK) the issuing bank/card company, does not sign up to those (think about Revolut or even Chase), but for example both Santander and HSBC have World Elite cards, have indeed signed up to some of those benefits (you need to sign up to the MasterCard Travel Rewards Website and only recognised BIN will come up with offers/premium services).0
