Credit Card with no fee for exchange

[snowmc]

Many cards now are not charging a foreign transaction now. Ones that come to mind are several major airline cards, HiltonHonors, Hyatt and the Celebrity cruise line card. Do some research....I'm sure you will find one that works for you.

Did you have to sign for your purchases?

Yes we signed the receipt

Bearin mind, Capital one cards do not have emv chips and are not available as such at the present time. It should not be a problem for the most part but you might run into isolated cases where the merchants don't want to accept it in violation of their agreements with either mc or visa.

 

On my last cruise to the Baltic I took both a Cap1 w/o a chip and a BoA with a chip. Needed to use one with a chip in an automatic ticket machine for the public transit in Helsinki

Mileage Plus card from Chase/VISA does not have a foreign transaction fee, but it does have a yearly fee which is offset by two club passes if you are at least a silver member.

A quick google search will bring up a few sites where you can see many CC without FTF & no annual fees

 

We have very few options in Canada I counted 4 cards so far with no FTF

 

Would be willing to post these cards(names)? I think Sears MC is one??

I got a Barclay Arrival card before my last trip. No annual fee, no ftf. I did tell them where and when I was going. Julia

I agree with lastdance. my United Airlines Visa from Chase has no foreign transaction fee and also gives me trip insurance. it costs $90 per year but the peace of mind having "free" travel insurance is well worth that for me.
