Paying while you are there

  • SGD in Singapore. MYR in Johor. Both destinations are highly card-friendly. At the terminal, choose the local currency rather than USD to avoid dynamic currency conversion.
  • Tickets and hotels are usually priced in dollars already, so there is nothing to convert.
  • At the card machine, choose the local currency. Never take the offer to be billed in dollars.

Get into Singapore Blockchain Week

Priced in dollars. Paid in dollars. Nothing lost in between.

Official tickets

Know before you tap

Two rules that save you real money abroad

  1. 01

    At the card machine, always choose the local currency

    Converts once, at a flat 1.8% Forex Charge.

    Why the dollar option costs more

    The machine will offer to charge you in dollars instead. It sounds helpful. It is not. Choose the local currency - baht, yen, won, whatever is on the screen - and your money converts once, at a flat 1.8% Forex Charge.

    Taking the dollar option is called dynamic currency conversion. The shop sets that exchange rate, not Visa, and it usually costs you 3% to 7%. You will never see it listed as a fee, because it is hidden inside the rate. That is the point of it. Say no, every time.

  2. 02

    Online, pay in dollars when the site is already in dollars

    Nothing to convert, nothing to pay. 0%.

    Why this one is not a trick

    Booking sites, conference tickets and airlines often quote in dollars already. That is not a conversion trick. That is just the price. Your money is already in dollars, so there is nothing to convert and nothing to pay. 0%.

    Hotel in dollars. Flight in dollars. Ticket in dollars. Three charges, no conversion on any of them.

Your money stays yours, wherever you land
