Important information
1 These fees are charged by Commonwealth Bank. There may be additional fees applied by international banks on top of these and you may be notified of this at the ATM or cash dispensing merchant prior to the transaction being completed.
2 The fee will be charged in the currency from which the withdrawal is made.
3 Cirrus, Mastercard or Visa plus cash withdrawal.
4 A maximum charge of $300, or a flat fee of $3.00 applies if your closing balance on the previous business day was in credit. The international transaction fee would also apply.
5 For Travel Money Card, the rate applicable to the conversion is the retail exchange rate at the time of the conversion. For Debit Mastercard or Mastercard credit card, the exchange rate that is applied to a transaction is the exchange rate as of the day of settlement which is the day that Mastercard determines the settlement amount to be exchanged between the acquirer and the issuer. The settlement date is therefore typically different from the date of the actual transaction.
6 Applies when you make a purchase or obtain a cash advance in Australian dollars while overseas, or while you are in Australia (for example online) where the merchant, or the financial institution or entity processing the transaction, is located overseas. For cash advances, the relevant cash advance charge will also apply.
* CommBank American Express cards are no longer available for sale. Existing cards have been closed but some transactions may still occur. International transaction fees apply to any overseas transactions, including on Platinum and Diamond Awards American Express Cards.
