When you make a payment abroad with your corporate credit card in Swiss francs, an additional charge of 1.5% is levied. This applies both to payments at card terminals and to payments in online shops abroad.
Our tip: pay in the local currency – you’ll generally enjoy a better rate of exchange.
The processing surcharge for foreign currency transactions is 1.5%. If you pay in a foreign currency with your card, the amount will be billed in the card currency.
Our tip: pay in the local currency because hotels, restaurants and stores often offer unfavorable rates of exchange.
