====== Australian Sites that can incur a fee for transactions ======

If you buy from an "Australian" website that bills in **Australian Dollars (AUD)** but **uses a foreign payment processor**, the local bank charges their usual FX percentage on the AUD amount. This results from a change to the T&Cs on Mastercard and VISA effective 20th March 2014, but may also apply to bank-issued American Express cards.

The problem is that there is no way that they or a cardholder can tell where a merchant will process a transaction. If the merchant does not disclose this on their website, there seems to be no way to tell.

Likewise some sites of multi national companies (no .au) address e.g. Dell/Apple do not charge

Hence through our members we can advise others here of past experiences with websites that through their payment policies will incur such a charge unless you use a card that does not charge fees (eg 28 degrees card)
