FAQs
Common questions answered
No. Prospa doesn’t charge foreign transaction, FX or exchange fees on card payments. Payments are converted at the official Visa exchange rate only. ATM operator fees may still apply overseas. Eligibility, fees and T&Cs apply.
The No FX claim applies to card payments made with the Prospa Visa Business Debit Card wherever Visa is accepted. It does not apply to international bank transfers.
There is a $0 monthly account fee and no international transaction fee on eligible card payments. Prospa Rewards is optional — a 1% fee plus GST applies per eligible transaction while it is switched on. Other fees and T&Cs apply; consider the PDS and terms.
The Prospa Business Account cannot make international bank transfers. Where a supplier accepts Visa, you can pay by card with No FX Fees. If a supplier only accepts payment to a foreign bank account, an alternative arrangement would be needed.
ATM operator fees may still apply when withdrawing cash overseas. The No FX claim covers card payments (in-store, online and to suppliers that accept Visa), not ATM cash withdrawals. Check the PDS for full details.
