I remain a little confused -- I could be wrong, but swear when I recently used Uber on South America I was charged in local currency as displayed and then my Chase card did its magic and converted to USD for me. This matches my prior experience. (In November, the amounts in question were so small due to country that I would not have noticed 1.5%... literally a few cents USD.) Does this mean/imply Uber marked up the foreign currency amount before giving it to Visa? I still don't see this currency option in my app or account via web. Could USA users be different somehow? Thanks. (Example: In Peru used it a LOT... Always quoted in Soles...strangely, I did notice my AmEx default card started giving me issues so switched to my Visa which worked fine, and I used Lyft a bunch too... ). Example:
