Different limits may apply for payment cards, which are issued in currencies other than the Euro.
Transactions are effected in the currency of the country where they are executed, under condition that the payment organisation permits the effecting of transactions in a different currency. If the merchant permits transactions in a currency other than the currency of the country where the transaction is effected, cardholder grants consent to any extra fee applied and to the currency exchange rate used by the merchant by authorising the transaction.
When transactions are performed in a currency other than the card currency, the payment organisation accepts to effect the transaction as long as the available balance:
is sufficient to cover potential commission on fulfilling the transaction by the payment organisation;
is at least 103% of the transaction value, after converting it to the card currency at the selling exchange rate of that currency, as applied by the payment organisation on the day of effecting the transaction.
Until the transaction performed in a currency other than the currency of a card is settled by the payment organisation, an amount equalling 103% of the transaction and an amount of commission due is blocked, reducing the available balance by the corresponding amount.
Cardholder may be asked to provide a document confirming the identity at the moment of transaction. Merchant has the right to decline a card payment, if cardholder refuses to present an identity document or cardholder’s signature is missing on the card.
