What is a Foreign Transaction Fee Calculator?
A Foreign Transaction Fee Calculator helps you understand exactly how much extra you are being charged when you use your debit or credit card to make purchases in a foreign currency. Most banks and card providers charge between 1% and 3% on every foreign transaction and these charges can add up quickly, especially on longer trips or frequent international purchases.
This calculator shows you the true cost of every foreign purchase so you can make smarter decisions about when to use your card and when to use cash or a travel card.
