Multi-Currency Processing Services Sample Clauses

Multi-Currency Processing Services. (MCP) (i) Multi-currency processing (“MCP”) enables a Merchant to price its goods and services in various selected currencies (each an “Acceptance Currency”) and the Cardholder then decides to purchase the goods and services in the currency of his/her choice (e.g. Euro) (“MCP Transaction”). The Cardholder provides the card details at the point of sale and completes the Transaction in the chosen Acceptance Currency (e.g. Euro).
