Your multi-currency myPOS account

To accept payments via a payment terminal, online payment, or webshop, you'll need a myPOS account.

With this account, you can hold not only euros but also other currencies, such as Danish krone, Swiss francs, and Norwegian kroner. The myPOS account accepts payments in foreign currencies, and you decide whether you receive it in euros or a foreign currency. The multi-currency feature is completely free, no additional costs. Transferring between currencies is also free. The exchange rates are updated daily.

How does it work?

Within your myPOS account, you can set a specific currency for each payment terminal. Create sub-accounts for different currencies and link a payment terminal to the corresponding account. This avoids exchange rate fees. Additionally, you can link the myPOS business card to any of your foreign currency sub-accounts, allowing you to make payments in that currency with the card.

You can choose from the following foreign currencies:
Swiss Franc (CHF), Danish Krone (DKK), Norwegian Krone (NOK), Swedish Krona (SEK), Polish Zloty (PLN), Czech Koruna (CZK), Hungarian Forint (HUF), Romanian Leu (RON), Icelandic Krona (ISK)

Pay in your own currency with Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC)

With Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), foreign customers can pay in their own currency. You receive the amount in the currency you've set in your account, such as euros. Customers immediately see the amount in their own currency, like yen for Japanese customers or dollars for Americans, with no surprises on their statements. The exchange rate is fixed, and DCC is free and automatically enabled.

DCC automatically enabled on your myPOS payment terminal

When a customer pays with a currency other than euros, the myPOS terminal automatically displays the DCC menu with the exchange rate. The customer has the option between two amounts: the amount in euros or the amount in their own currency. Once the customer has made their choice, the payment proceeds as usual.

Exchange Rates

You will encounter an exchange rate when the currency of the accepted payment differs from that of your (sub)account. This applies to accepted payment cards, incoming or outgoing transfers, and payments with your myPOS debit card. The buying and selling rates can be found online, as well as in your myPOS account. These rates are updated every business day around 9:00 AM.

Free data SIM card with EU roaming

All myPOS payment terminals contain a free multi-provider data SIM card with unlimited data bundle for European coverage. This allows you to use the payment terminal throughout Europe without additional costs. The payment terminals operate completely independently, without needing cables or Wi-Fi.

The SIM card automatically switches between networks, such as KPN, Vodafone, and Odido in the Netherlands, and the strongest local network abroad. Whether you're at a trade fair in Belgium, an event in Germany, or a market in Sweden – you can accept payments everywhere effortlessly.
