What does a dual-currency credit card mean?

Unlike domestic credit cards, dual-currency credit cards are credit cards that can be used outside China. It is called dual-currency card because it usually supports RMB non-RMB transactions, among which RMB dollar is the most common. So, the problem is that even if the dollar is very universal, it is not used in all countries, such as Britain, Japan and Thailand. It's too much trouble to apply for a credit card in the corresponding currency when traveling. However, if you don't do this, you will be charged an additional currency conversion fee of about 1.5% when you swipe your card in these non-dollar countries. It doesn't look like much, but it adds up to a lot of extra expenses. Therefore, I personally suggest that you can choose the blue all-currency international credit card of China Merchants Bank and American Express, and all purchases in the world can be exempted from 0 foreign exchange handling fee. In addition, the rights and interests of this card are not bad, such as giving high travel insurance, cash back from Haitao, cash back from consumption abroad and so on.
