How to avoid fees
- Prefer the ATMs marked as free above.
- If your card is in another currency (e.g. GBP, USD or CHF) and the ATM offers a conversion, always choose euro (without conversion). The ATM's own conversion (DCC) often costs 5–10%.
- Avoid Euronet and other independent operators, especially at airports and in tourist areas.
- Withdraw a larger amount once rather than small amounts several times.
- Check before your trip what your own bank charges for foreign withdrawals.
