Why does a currency conversion show a different exchange rate at checkout than on my card?
Our answer
Compare the merchant checkout rate to card-network FX plus fees, and avoid dynamic currency conversion when it adds markup.
Why this approach makes sense
Travel, transport and payment providers use different rules. The correct answer comes from the actual booking, provider and transaction.
Before you try it
Check the operator’s current conditions and keep any relevant receipt or confirmation.
