Using credit card while traveling overseas will reduce hassle, but the usage transfer rate ?

CIMB/MBB is  1 % additional charge hmm.gif
Then transfer rate?  about 1 % more above standard rate?
Visa convertion rate:
1000 EUR = RM4837

Google Rate
1,000 Eur = RM4,708

Maybank rate
1,000 =     RM4,787

So if using card  for 1k Euro you end up paying:

=RM4837
+ 1% = 48.37
= 4885

If change locally, the different will be:

RM4885 - RM4708. = RM173 difference rolleyes.gif

Betul?

If you chase airmiles use credit card. No brainer. If you want to save and don't want to bring so much cash use wise and bigpay.
