What fees will Mastercard charge me on a £850

Hi, I need some help. I need to fund a small Forex trading account with an Australian Broker with £850 (sterling). They allow me to do this either via my MasterCard or via a local bank transfer to their UK account at Barclays UK.

I'm with Danske in N Ireland and they have told be the transfer would cost me £10. So I went on the MasterCard website to compare their £10 fee but I can't track down the approximate cost in fees using my MasterCard? can anyone help? Thanks in advance.........

  • Their charges will be in your t&cs, but assuming there is a forex fee plus cash advance interest, I'd say £10 is a good deal.
