During two months in Brazil I've seen DCC only in Cielo POS terminals. They provide clear instruction for user and most vendors either asked me or selected BRL without reminder. There is another problem in Brazil, especially outside SP & RJ - at many POS they do not accept credit card (Bilhete Único top-up in São Paulo metro for example) or have surcharge for them (there is no or smaller surcharge for debit cards).
