In today's rapidly moving world, an avid traveller seeks convenience and financial freedom. But oftentimes, we are bogged down by the hidden costs of travelling abroad like the Forex Markup. But there’s a trick with which you can bring your Forex Markup to zero.

INDIE, the revolutionary banking app from IndusInd Bank, introduces the Megastar tier - a passport to hassle-free travel with zero forex markup. Let's help you understand what Forex Markup is and how it affects your travel plans abroad.

What is Forex Markup?

Forex markup is an additional fee applied by banks when you make transactions in a currency different from your card's default currency. In other words, it is a fee charged when you convert the denominations. This extra charge is often presented as a percentage above the standard exchange rate, contributing to the overall cost of your transactions when you are spending overseas.

When is the Forex Markup applicable?

Forex Markup fees are usually charged in the following situations:

• Retail POS Transactions Outside India
• Online Transactions in Foreign currency
• Transactions in India at Duty Free Shops Where POS Machines are Linked to Foreign Accounts
• All Other Foreign Currency Transactions

What is the usual Forex Markup charged on transactions?

Traditional banking practices involve various charges related to forex transactions. These can include conversion fees, service charges, and, significantly, forex markup. Various financial institutions, including banks in the market might impose varying forex markup rates, sometimes reaching as high as 3.5% or more on each transaction.

How does a debit card with ZERO Forex Markup help?
