Available to our financial institution partners, Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) is an additional benefit that acquirers can offer their merchants. With Dynamic Currency Conversion, merchants can offer international customers the option of paying in the local currency or the billing currency of their card. This provides easy-to-understand pricing that can help improve conversion rates.
How Dynamic Currency Conversion works
At checkout, Dynamic Currency Conversion identifies the billing currency of the card and asks the cardholder which currency they would prefer to pay in. Our DCC solution is available to acquirers with the Visa Platform Connect (VPC) program in place.
