    If you add the USD currency card to Paypal and want to buy/pay in USD and avoid paying Paypal for unnecessary currency conversion (in other words robbery) make sure to choose "Bill me in the currency listed on the seller's invoice"

    My Account -> Profile -> My Money -> My preapproved payments -> Manage My Preapproved payments-> Set Available Funding Sources -> Conversion Options (for card you'd like to change this option)-> Bill me in the currency listed on the seller's invoice -> Submit

    This is the solution I've applied today and it worked!

    Hello!

    I've been having the same problem with my card. I made several big purchases and so far I have been charged a total of $319 USD in conversion fees!! Ridiculous, right?

    After much research, I was informed by one of the shops that my card was issued by Wirecard Card Solutions Ltd., which is located in the United Kingdom, and that is why I was being charged in GBP even though my card is in USD. Apparently, some shops detect your card's issuing country and charge you in the currency of that country.

    So the problem isn't Paypal or the merchant you are buying from, it's the issuing country of your Payoneer card. I have contacted customer support requesting a refund of the conversion fees I was unjustifiably charged. I am currently waiting for a response from them.

    I hope this helps everyone who is having the same problem!
