Convert pounds to Mexican pesos b4 travel query

[dj45]

1. So if I exchange pounds to Mexican pesos in the app, I presume I’ll have a separate Mexican pesos currency and separate pounds (mother currency) that I can top up?
2. And when I use atm to withdraw say 500 pesos, it will directly deduct that plus the 2% over 200 pounds a month limit? Plus any local atm fee??
3. So can I use any ATM without worrying about exchange rates if I withdraw from pesos in app??

Thank you

It will try to use the currency that you’re paying in - so it will take from the peso balance if you have one

Thanks. I suppose you convert your money to pesos and do more of that as required, then simply spend that as if pesos were ur normal currency

Yes.
I do so with every currency I can hold in
You might be lucky that your base currency is worth more prior to your travel plus: you avoid the weekend markup.

I just noticed that was not the question at all.
Well… it’s early in the morning.
