Knowing the rate is not the same as remembering it

PayperWIZ holds the cards you actually own and names the right one at the till — after the cap you have already used this month, and after the foreign-currency fee. Every rate in it says where it came from, the way this page does: read off the issuer and dated, or marked indicative.
