Banking

FX rates

Macquarie Bank

  • Choose to be charged in the local currency rather than AUD.

  • Select Credit when transacting in-store and using overseas ATMs.

  • If you experience issues tapping your card, please try the transaction again and insert or swipe your card.

  • This way you’re benefiting from competitive foreign exchange (FX) rates that we offer on our credit and debit cards (see below). You’ll also avoid paying commissions or fees that many local merchants charge if you elect to pay in AUD.
