International Payments on Adidas
Buying from Adidas in another country adds two things to think about: currency conversion and your bank's cross-border policies.
Currency conversion
Adidas usually quotes in local currency. Your bank converts at its rate, often with a 1-3% markup. Pay in the merchant's currency rather than your own at the checkout to avoid double conversion.
Cross-border fees
Many cards charge a foreign-transaction fee (1-3%). Travel-friendly cards waive this.
Declines
Banks often flag international purchases as fraud. Tell your bank in advance or approve the transaction in the app.
Import duties
For physical goods shipped internationally, customs may charge duties. Adidas usually shows a total estimate at checkout; the courier collects on delivery.
Frequently asked questions
Should I always pay in my own currency?
No — let your bank convert. Their rate beats the merchant's "dynamic currency conversion" in almost every case.
Do duties apply on every international order?
Below a low threshold most countries waive duties; above it they apply.
