Banks, card providers, money transfer services and exchange counters sell currency at a less favourable rate and may add fees, so compare the total amount that arrives rather than the advertised fee. When paying by card abroad, choose to pay in the local currency rather than letting the terminal convert to your home currency. The guide how exchange rates work explains spreads and cross rates, and the main currency converter covers all 30 ECB currencies.
