The clear choice
International cardholders may be wary of foreign transactions because they don’t know the actual cost in their home currency. DCC gives cardholders the information they need and want. It automatically identified foreign cards at the time of authorization, clearly displaying the sale amount in the local currency, as well as in the cardholder’s home currency. It also shows the conversion rate and any associated fees for a completely transparent transaction.
