To avoid this, it's advisable to pay in the local currency to ensure that Mastercard's exchange rate is applied.

When making a transaction, it's important to note that if the merchant or ATM operator converts your payment, Mastercard foreign exchange rates will not be applied.

This situation typically arises when you choose to pay in the currency of your card, rather than the currency of the merchant or ATM.

For instance, if you're traveling abroad and using your card to make a purchase, the merchant may offer to convert the transaction into your home currency.

If you accept this option, the merchant's exchange rate will be used instead of Mastercard's.
