The exchange rates are set daily by Viseca Card Services SA and fixed once daily at the same time of day. When setting the exchange rate it takes the usual market sources as a guide. The exchange rate that Viseca Card Services SA sets for foreign currency transactions is more favourable than the banknote rate used for exchanging cash into foreign currency.
