GlobalChoice Dynamic
Currency Conversion
GlobalChoice DCC is offered to your Visa and MasterCard international cardholders when making their
purchase on the First Data EFTPOS terminal. When the card is presented to the terminal, the terminal will
determine whether the card is a candidate to offer DCC and if so, will automatically prompt the merchant
by loading the DCC particulars onto the screen.
A typical DCC transaction flow therefore reflects:
>
International cardholder presents a Visa or MasterCard for payment
>
The EFTPOS terminal determines whether the card presented for payment is an international card.
>
If it is, determine whether the card falls into one of the eligible currencies for DCC.
>
Obtain an exchange rate.

Merchant and cardholder receipts will be generated as usual, however, additional information will be
printed on the receipt in accordance with the scheme requirements. It is therefore mandatory to provide
the cardholder their copy of the receipt for a DCC transaction.
