DCC: How it Works – Part #1
1. The cardholder presents a card at the point of sale (POS).
2. The POS device detects that the credit card is foreign.
3. The attendant asks the cardholder if he prefers to pay in his home currency or the local currency.
4. If the cardholder prefers his home currency, the POS device converts the sale price, based on the current exchange rate.
