Details
This is an example of saving 1.2 yuan by paying in a foreign currency for a subscription that costs 35.1 yuan when paid in yuan. The poster says that, since they have no occasion to travel abroad, it is better to use the card's foreign currency spending limit for payments like these.
This involves selecting a foreign currency rather than yuan on the payment screen and completing the payment. No other specific procedures or workarounds were provided.
The savings are so small that they have been described as only enough for a glass of lemon water after saving for two months. It needs to be confirmed which service's subscription fee this was and which currency was used for the payment. Depending on the card issuer, foreign currency payment fees could eliminate the savings.
