Now the credit cards launched by various banks have visa-free function, which means that you can pay directly without opening a professional online banking.

Case:
During the National Day holiday, Lao Zhang took his family to travel to Europe. Because he is usually cautious, and it is the first time to go abroad. Although Lao Zhang's family spends a lot of money, they pay attention to keeping a small receipt and keeping records, for fear of any problems with overseas credit cards. However, when he got the bill sent by the bank after returning to China, Lao Zhang found the problem.
It turns out that the amount of notes payable is tens of yuan higher than Lao Zhang's own account. Lao Zhang took a calculator and calculated according to the exchange rate. He found that everything was different from his own record, so he had to dial the customer service hotline of the bank. After asking, Lao Zhang realized that since the credit card he used was a US dollar card, he had to change it into US dollars after swiping euros, and in this process, the bank had to charge a currency exchange fee of 1.5%. "I didn't expect that there would be other hidden charges besides the exchange rate. It's really a long experience. " Lao Zhang said rather helplessly.
Analysis:
When traveling abroad, we are often told to take the UnionPay channel as much as possible and avoid taking the channels such as visa and MasterCard, because it will be "cost-effective". In fact, the reason why domestic cardholders like to take the UnionPay channel is because no matter where in the world, as long as they swipe their cards through the UnionPay channel, the consumption amount will be directly converted into RMB according to the exchange rate, and there will be no exchange fee and no increase in the cardholder's card use cost. Otherwise, there may be a certain foreign exchange fee.
Accurately speaking, the foreign exchange handling fee should be "international settlement fee", which refers to an intermediate currency conversion fee charged by the international card organization to the issuing bank when the actual consumption currency is different from the credit card settlement currency. For example, suppose you travel to Europe and bring a Visa RMB-USD dual-currency card.
Then the euro you spend needs to be converted into dollars when you enter the account, and a foreign exchange fee is generated in the process. Usually, the issuing bank will charge the cardholder this fee, but many cardholders don't care because this foreign exchange fee will not be listed separately in the bill. But if you convert it according to the exchange rate of the day, you will find that the cost of this part is actually quite large.
After learning from many credit card centers, it is found that most credit card centers charge 1.5% of the transaction amount, while the Visa card standards of ICBC and Agricultural Bank of China are lower, charging 1% of the transaction amount, and some banks charge 1.75% of the handling fee.
It is worth noting that some banks will also charge a certain settlement fee when the transaction currency is the same as that of the credit card account. For example, the RMB-USD dual-currency card of Huaxia Bank [3. 12% capital research report] is traded through non-UnionPay lines, and the transaction amount of RMB-USD dual-currency card of Minsheng Bank [2.45% capital research report] is also charged at 1% in the US dollar area.
