Frequently Asked Questions

How does ZeroFX work?

ZeroFX is a feature offered by bunq that allows users to save money when spending abroad by avoiding the typical foreign exchange fees charged by traditional banks. Here’s how it works:

  1. No Fixed Fee for Spending Abroad: Instead of having a fixed fee of 1.5% on top of your payment, bunq uses the Mastercard exchange rate + 0.5% currency fluctuation at the moment the payment is confirmed by the merchant. This means you get the best possible rate without additional fees.

  2. Opt for Local Currency: To activate ZeroFX, you need to choose the local currency when paying or withdrawing from an ATM abroad. This ensures that the transaction is processed using the current exchange rate without additional fees.

  3. Threshold for Free Usage: For bunq Free users, ZeroFX is applied to payments below a €1000 threshold. If the payment exceeds this limit, ZeroFX is not applied to the amount above the threshold and the user will be charged an additional 1% conversion fee.

  4. Monthly Savings Summary: Users can see the total amount saved with ZeroFX in the app, which can be a significant amount over time, especially for frequent travelers.
