What is Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC)?

Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) is a service offered at selected POS located overseas and used by certain merchants and service providers (who may be located overseas or online). DCC converts a foreign currency transaction into the currency of your credit card account at the point of sale. The currency of your card account is LKR.

What happens if the transaction is converted via DCC?

The merchant will convert the transaction amount into the currency of your card account, using a foreign exchange rate determined by the relevant merchant or DCC service provider. This rate may differ from the foreign exchange rate determined by Visa, MasterCard or other relevant card scheme associations.
