Nice to know about DCC
DCC is a solution for currency conversion at the time of the transaction. Foreign customers paying with Visa or Mastercard will be presented with the option of paying in their own currency or the local currency.
When the customer chooses to pay in their own currency, the payment is made, for a fee, at a current exchange rate which is presented in the terminal. The exchange rate is delivered online by Nets and is updated several times a day.
DCC is available for more than 50 different currencies, with the most common ones being: EUR, USD, CHF, GBP, JPY, SEK, NOK, DKK, AUD, CAD, PLN, ISK, CNY, and RUB.
Offering DCC to your customers doesn't cost you anything. When your customers choose to pay with their own currency, you earn a 1% commission on the transaction amount.
