    Do the Credit Union charge overseas transaction fees on either the credit or debit card?

      Hi Marianne,

      The People’s Choice Credit Union Visa Credit Card has a currency conversion fee of 3%.
      I tried searching their website for the PDS related to their debit card but it’s not currently available on their site, so I can’t confirm the fee on their debit card. However as a guide, most Visa debit cards have a fee of 3%.

      If you’d like to find a card that doesn’t charge overseas transaction or foreign exchange fees, you can search some credit card options here and debit card options here.

      Hope this helps!
