Thomas Cook (India) has announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with Blinkit, introducing foreign exchange retail on a quick commerce platform. The service enables doorstep delivery of Thomas Cook’s Borderless Travel Card (for leisure travellers) and Study Buddy (for students) in minutes.

Currently available in Delhi, Bengaluru, and Mumbai, the service will expand to other key markets in phases. Customers receive blank forex cards instantly, while Thomas Cook’s forex team handles video KYC, statutory compliances, and card loading — making travellers fully ready within an hour.

The collaboration reflects the growing demand for speed and digital-first services in forex, traditionally seen as complex and time-consuming.
