The Visa exchange rate refers to the rate used by Visa when processing foreign transactions on its network. It is determined by a variety of factors including
market supply and demand, economic data, interest rate differentials, and political stability. Consumers using Visa cards for international purchases should be aware of these rates, as they can affect the final cost of the transaction.
