DCC – o seu negócio de portas abertas para o mundo


We don't need to speak the same language to understand each other, but when it comes to payments it's good to be on the same page of the dictionary, especially in a country where businesses are looking forward to the arrival of summer and foreign tourists.

If welcoming is a characteristic of the Portuguese, in such a complicated period in the life of Portuguese business REDUNIQ proposes to helping the tourism sector welcoming foreign tourists with a payment service that speaks the same language as them: the DCC - Currency Conversion.

DCC - your business with its doors open to the world

In the Eurozone, currency exchanges are a thing of the past, but those travelling from Brazil, China, the United Kingdom or Switzerland may face difficulties in carrying out payments in your home currency.

When it comes to making a payment at a hotel, this can be a problem, but that's exactly why REDUNIQ offers the service DCC - Currency Conversion which, in a simple and fast way, allows its customers to choose to pay by card (Visa and Mastercard) in their currency of origin, in a transparent, informed and secure way.

Everything is extremely simple and convenient. When paying by card, your payment terminal recognises the currency of origin of the customer's Visa or Mastercard and then, if the payment is eligible for DCCThe final amount to be paid is shown in the currency of origin and in euros, as well as the exchange rate. In the end, it's up to the customer to decide which currency they prefer to pay in.

As well as being able to receive customers from all over the world, without any barriers or complications, this service does not change the card payment method and gives you the opportunity to receive additional income as REDUNIQ will credit your account with the financial remuneration resulting from the volume of converted transactions.

REDUNIQ will then share the markup with you. Markup is, in practice, the amount paid by the cardholder when they make the currency conversion in a DCC transaction and replaces the amount that would be charged by the card issuer in a non-DCC transaction.

So, simply, easily and profitably, DCC opens up your business to the world:

Advantages for your business

  • It allows you to receive payments in foreign currency easily;
  • Additional revenue due to the financial incentive;
