We charge you a foreign currency conversion fee when you make a transaction in a foreign currency or in Australian Dollars:

  • outside of Australia
  • In Australia (for example, online) and the merchant or the financial institution processing the transaction is located outside of Australia.

Your account will be debited in Australian Dollars plus a Foreign Currency Conversion Fee. You’ll notice that these are listed out as separate items on your statement.

Conversion rates are set by Visa and can fluctuate until the transaction is debited to your account.

Transactions are converted from the Transaction currency to the Australian Dollar equivalent (or to United States Dollar then to the Australian Dollar equivalent), as at the date they are processed by Visa.

Both debit and credit transactions in foreign currencies are subject to international conversion rates.

All international transactions are listed on your statement in the currency of the transaction and the Australian Dollar equivalent.

Fees apply to all outward International Payments as outlined in our Financial Services Guide which can be viewed here.

So that we’re compliant with legislation, we’ve made a small change to the way Foreign Currency Conversion Fees appear on your Greater Bank statement.

Whereas, before, the Foreign Currency Conversion Fee was included in the purchase price of the foreign currency, the fee is now listed out as a separate item on your statement.
