What is DCC?

Our Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) feature on our POS terminal provides foreign cardholders with the choice to pay in their home currency at the point of sale. The retailer can take a commission on each transaction. For example – a visitor from the UK makes a purchase. The terminal will recognise where their card is from and offer for them to complete the sale in pound sterling.

local currency is determined
from their BIN number.

currency and their local currency.
