3. Q&A about Payment Amount

 

Why am I being overcharged beyond my order?

Because there is a currency conversion fee when you pay with a credit card during an order transaction, this fee is charged by the card issuer and the merchant does not participate.

What is the currency conversion fee?

Currency conversion fee: also known as international settlement fee, generally occurs when the consumption currency is different from the credit card currency. For example: your credit card account is denominated in US dollars, but now you go to a UK/European website to buy goods in GBP/EUR, then there will be a foreign currency conversion fee (GBP/EUR consumption, USD debit, both foreign currency exchange fees). Exchange fees vary between different banks and even between different credit cards. Generally, it is around 1.5%, between 1% and 2%. For details, you can consult the credit card center to inquire about the foreign currency exchange fee of your card.

How can I avoid this?

(1)  It is recommended to pay using PayPal account.
(2)  It is recommended to pay with a credit card to avoid currency conversion fees:
