What is it?
The International Student Exchange Identity Card (ISE Card) is a student's passport to savings. By presenting the ISE Card everywhere, cardholder's will be eligible for a variety of discounts ranging from 5%-50% off on hostels, hotels, restaurants, adventure tours, discos, museums, castles, and other exciting attractions all over the world.
How does it work?
ISE Cardholders present their card wherever they go to see if they are eligible for a discount. Once they know where they will be traveling, cardholders may simply go to the Worldwide Discount List, which provides information about the locations offering discounts specifically for THEM. While there, they will find photos and descriptions of many of the locations, which will better enable them to plan their trip. Some of our discount locations prefer that a special "code" be mentioned in addition to presenting the ISE Card as proof of Student, Faculty or Youth status. All codes are listed with the discounts offered on the ISE website. For these discounts, we recommend that cardholders make reservations in advance through the contact phone numbers or web addresses provided on our website. Order an ISE Card!
In addition, the ISE Card is recognized as an International Student ID, so even places not listed on our website will often honor the ISE card for their existing discounted rates. Always remember to present the ISE Card.
Additional Benefits
Cardholders will also receive up to $2,000 in bankruptcy protection, which covers any airline tickets issued to cardholders that are no longer honored by the airlines. This is a huge advantage while traveling and is a nice supplement to insurance packages that students may already have.
The ISE Card provides its members with important protection while abroad. Each ISE cardholder has access to a 24-hour toll free emergency phone number that may be called from anywhere in the world. Whether they need assistance with lost passports, sending cash abroad, arranging travel documents or legal issues, a hotline representative is always available to assist them. Since Worldwide Assistance representatives are able to converse in 24 different languages, even those whose native language is not English will be able to communicate and receive the assistance they need. ISE Cardholders with the bankruptcy protection feature will use this hotline to receive this benefit.
