International Transaction Fees & ATM Fees

Roland Last updated on March 18th, 2025

Whether travelling overseas or simply online shopping outside Australia, debit card users are usually forced to pay fees for both buying something in a foreign currency, and for using a foreign ATM to withdraw money overseas. These fees will add up, especially if you’re doing it frequently.

Below is a comparison table of all debit card international transaction fees and foreign ATM fees. Most are very similar, however one or two cards offer the chance to save some money on both foreign exchange fees and overseas ATM fees.
