Dynamic Currency Conversion
When sending a Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) transaction the amount in the cardholder's currency is placed in the field TransAmount and the currency code in the field TransCurrency. The original amount of the transaction is placed into fields OriginalTransAmount and OriginalTransCurrency.
Example:
Cardholder with a card issued in the currency of USD makes a purchase in the UK for 10 GBP. The cardholder is offered to pay in his card's currency which calculates as 13 USD.
If the cardholder accepted DCC the amount fields should be set as follows:
- TransAmount is set as 13
- TransCurrency is set as USD
- OriginalTransAmount is set as 10
- OriginalTransCurrency is set as GBP
