    Clarity for us from Halifax, but our son uses Barclay card and gets cashback on all purchases abroad.

    I'm not sure what the rate of cashback is, but something is better than nothing.

    Lloyds Ultra credit card - 1% cashback on spend for a year. No fees for non-GBP transactions.

    The MSE article talks through some of the best credit and debit card options https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/travel/cheap-travel-money/#creditcards

    If you'll want to withdraw cash then Chase is a good option as you can use Chase ATMs in the US without withdrawal fee.

    Chase is a good shout for America using their debit card - it is (as J.P.Morgan) the biggest bank in the USA and has a widespread network of branches and ATMs.

    Their credit card is also a good choice.
