Bank's Exchange Rate Markup

Timing Difference in Exchange Rates
70%The market exchange rate you are comparing against might be from a different day or time than when your bank processed the transaction, leading to a perceived discrepancy.
Foreign Transaction Fees
60%In addition to the exchange rate, your credit card may have charged a separate foreign transaction fee, which can add to the total cost and make the effective rate seem worse.
Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC)
