Nifty ideas you can use to build a better business
Foreign Fees
Before you take off on an international
business trip, check your credit cards. Some
cards charge a foreign exchange fee (usually 2
to 3 percent of your purchase) when you use
your card in another country. Call your card
issuer to ask about the fee. And beware that
Discover cards are for domestic use
only. To find a card that doesn't charge a
foreign exchange fee, check out
www.bankrate.com.
