With many foreign visitors to the casinos and other attractions within the City of Dreams, PC-EFT is also able to facilitate a currency conversion service (commonly referred to as Dynamic Currency Conversion or ‘DCC’) which allows the guests to choose to settle their bills in their home currency, meaning they know exactly what they are paying at the point of sale rather than finding out much later when their card statement arrives. This premium service then generates additional income for the owners.
