From now until September 30, 2011, consumers who purchase American Express Travelers Cheques, regardless of the amount, can enter a lucky draw and stand a chance to win an iPad2. Limited quantities available!* In addition, customers can also enjoy gifts when spending above certain amounts, including travel organizers, multi-purpose plug adapters, and backpacks.

American Express Travelers Cheques are accepted worldwide. They can be cashed at banks, hotels, foreign exchange counters, and American Express Travel Services locations, and can also be used directly at selected shops and restaurants with change given. If lost or stolen abroad, they are usually quickly replaced. Moreover, American Express Travelers Cheques have no expiration date — unused cheques can be kept for your next trip or saved as cash for emergencies.

American Express is now launching a special promotion where purchasing travelers cheques gives you a chance to win an iPad2. Spending between USD 1,000–4,999 or equivalent in other currencies on travellers cheques will get you a “travel organizer pouch”; spending between USD 5,000–11,999 or equivalent will earn you a “multi-purpose plug adapter (with USB port)”; and spending over USD 12,000 or equivalent will get you a “backpack.”
