Excuse me, could you kindly explain what exactly is the currency transaction fee? I'm a bit confused about how it's calculated and what it entails in the world of cryptocurrency transactions. Is it a percentage of the total transaction amount or a fixed fee? And how does it vary across different platforms and networks? I'd appreciate it if you could elaborate on this matter for me.

Foreign transaction fees are a type of charge imposed on purchases made in foreign currencies, either overseas or online. These fees are calculated as a percentage of the total purchase amount.

For credit cards that include a foreign transaction fee, the typical cost ranges from 1% to 3% of the purchase. This means that a significant portion of the purchase price can be lost to these fees.

Consumers should be aware of these fees when making purchases in foreign currencies to avoid unexpected costs. Some credit card companies offer cards with no foreign transaction fees, which can be a valuable feature for frequent travelers or online shoppers.
