Good to know, this is definitely a good selling point, especially if you shop a lot outside of Canada...

  • Amazon.ca Visa Card appears to be a good one. -sailor(Ocean & Mountain); 2015-8-10 {749} (#1531@4096) +1
    A couple weeks ago I purchased a flight ticket from Amaszonas Airlines, a Bolivian company, using my Amazon.ca card.  Today I received the statement and did some calculation and research.  The transaction is 2156 BOB (Boliviano, the currency of Bolivia), I was charged CAD$410.13 at the rate of 0.19022727.
     
    From Google I found the middle rate on the same day was 0.1890.  So the difference is only 0.63%.  Adding the fact that this card does not charge foreign transaction fee, that turned out to be a really good rate!
     
    Conclusion:  If you need to make some purchases abroad, the Amazon.ca card may be a good choice to save on exchanging cost.
