Integrating DCC into the Cashier or Checkout Page Products

If you use our Cashier or Checkout Page products, DCC is activated automatically at the end of the DCC registration process, without any further steps. DCC is seamlessly integrated into the payment workflow, which now looks like this:

  1. As soon as the customer selects a payment method during the check-out process, the system runs processes that:
    • Identifies their home currency, and checks that it is one of your registered DCC currencies.
    • Checks that their payment method allows DCC transactions.
  2. If these checks have positive results, then the system will offer the customer the option to convert their final “check-out amount” into their home currency, and settling their payment in that currency.
  3. If the customer accepts the offer to pay in their home currency, then:
    • The final “check-out amount” is converted into their home currency at the DCC exchange rate.
    • The system initiates a payment request with these additional details:
      • The converted “DCC check-out amount” is used as the transaction amount.
        (This is the value that will appear on the customer’s billing statement.)
      • The DCC currency is used as the transaction currency.
      • Exchange markup and other fees are added to the transaction.
    • Later, when the transaction is finally settled, the system will automatically split the exchange markup and other fees between you and Nuvei (the acquirer), according to your DCC agreement with Nuvei.
