Where do I receive my bank cards if I’m moving too fast? (alien.top)

I don’t spend more than 5 days in a city.

Even if I’m not staying at a hotel, can I give their address to my bank so they can send the card there? I can plan my trip such that I make a stop in that country to pick it up. I’m not sure if I need to book my stay before doing this or not? I normally don’t even stay at hotels.

Some banks use DHL “overnight” but local rules make that unreliable so I gotta give banks a relatively stable address. Also most banks are slow.

I’m not familiar with how P.O. Boxes work in Europe.

I probably will be in or around Germany when I need this

Get your bank to send the cards to someone you know. Get them to package them up and if you know where you will be staying next week say tell them to mail it to that hotel by FedEx ups dhl

These people can get a package from anywhere on earth to anywhere on earth for under $30 within a few days
