A Foreign Transaction Fee (also known as an ISA fee) of 1% is assessed for all foreign transactions, including ATM withdrawals in foreign countries. This fee will post as a separate transaction. Many institutions 'upcharge' the 1% fee. Delta Community does not 'upcharge'; we simply pass the fee to the cardholder.
These charges will be assessed on the same account as the original transaction and will not be debited from an alternate account, such as a Savings Account. If you do not have sufficient funds to cover a transaction and this fee, it can create a negative balance on the share or loan of the original transaction.
In simple terms, the Foreign Transaction Fee is a currency conversion fee. Since all transactions on U.S. issued credit and debit cards are posted in U.S. dollars, Visa, MasterCard and American Express convert any foreign purchase amount into U.S. dollars and charge a currency conversion fee for doing so. In our case, Visa charges a 1% fee for foreign transactions made with your Delta Community Visa Credit and Debit or ATM cards for currency conversion, while other card issuers charge as much as 3%. This fee is NOT a new fee, but changes with card company regulations now require it to be listed as a separate charge on your statement. Previously, this fee was included in the exchange rate by Visa as part of the total transaction amount.
Using your Delta Community Visa Credit and Debit or ATM card for overseas transactions still offers you the best value for your money. Plus if your card is ever lost or stolen while traveling, you are protected by Visa's Zero Liability Policy against fraudulent use.
You can use your cards anywhere Visa is accepted. If you know your PIN, you can use the card at an ATM where the Visa logo is displayed. Visa's Global ATM Locator.
Visa no longer charges the 0.80% Single Currency fee, and has replaced it with a 1% fee.
If an ATM is used that is not routed through the Visa network, the 1% fee will not be charged by Visa. However, a foreign transaction fee from that particular system may be charged. Delta Community cannot provide a quote for this fee. It may also be useful to know that our ATM cards are not accepted everywhere (like Visa cards are), so use of your ATM card is limited. Also, additional fees may apply, depending on the financial institution operating the ATM. Look for the Plus, Interlink and Co-op logos when using your ATM card.
