If you send a letter or package overseas, you probably don’t think too much about the journey it takes – the hours spent travelling across borders by rail, air or sea, and the multiple hands it passes through. And if things go well, it will arrive in just a few days, leaving you and the recipient none the wiser. International payments work similarly.

Our independent lab tests are constantly surprising us. It's not uncommon for an expensive item from a well-known brand to make us turn our noses, while a product that costs a fraction of the price can land one of our Best Buy or Great Value recommendations.
