The maths

What it costs to spend abroad

Pick a currency and an amount, or type your own. Every figure is worked out from the European Central Bank’s reference rate for the date shown and from the fees listed under Assumptions, sources and dates, which you can change.

Estimates, not quotes. Your card issuer’s or bank’s fees may differ from these assumptions, which you can change.

Purchase

For 100 EUR, from USD:

Results
At the mid-market rate$114.60
Card purchase$118.04$3.44 more than the mid-market amount
JetSet, with your cost of getting JETSnot decided yet

The vendor pays JetSet’s fee: 1.5% of each till payment. You pay the amount on the bill. Nothing is charged on the test network. How you get JETS is not decided yet, so this is not a full cost.

Cash

For 200 EUR in cash, from USD:

Results
At the mid-market rate$229.20
Airport exchange kiosk$261.29$32.09 more than the mid-market amount
Your home card at a foreign ATM$241.08$11.88 more than the mid-market amount

Assumptions, sources and dates

Each figure except JetSet’s own fee is an assumption you can change. The label says what kind of figure it is; the sources say where it comes from and when it was last checked.

Sources

  1. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Regulation Z commentary (comment 4(a)-4.ii.B) (opens in a new tab). An example of a 1 percent network charge and a 2 percent issuer charge, “for a total of a 3 percentage point foreign transaction fee”. last checked 20 Sept 2026.
  2. Capital One, “Foreign Transaction Fees Defined & Explained” (opens in a new tab). “Generally 1%-3% of the transaction amount.” last checked 20 Sept 2026; the source is dated 12 Mar 2026.
  3. Chase, “Additional Banking Services and Fees for Personal Accounts”, effective 14 Jun 2026 (opens in a new tab). A 3% exchange rate adjustment and a $5 fee for a withdrawal outside the US, with the ATM owner’s own surcharge still applying. The page says these may be waived on some accounts. last checked 20 Sept 2026; the source is dated 14 Jun 2026.
  4. Visa, “Pay the same exchange rate every time” (opens in a new tab). From April 2021 one exchange rate is used through authorization, clearing and settlement, with no charge for that change. It does not say what an issuer adds. last checked 20 Sept 2026.
  5. NerdWallet, “Traveling Abroad? Order Currency Before You Go” (opens in a new tab). “Not uncommon to see airport exchanges charging 14% more” than the IMF rate, and some premiums over 17%. NerdWallet’s own finding. last checked 2 Oct 2026; the source is dated 29 Sept 2026.

Exchange rates as of 18 Sept 2026: European Central Bank, euro foreign exchange reference rates (opens in a new tab). No live rate is used: the rate is only as current as this date.

Settlement

Approved when it arrives on the ledger

The till does not guess. It watches the Stellar ledger and shows Approved when the customer’s payment arrives.

At the tillTestnet beta
  1. Enter the sale

    Open JetSet Vendor on the till and enter the amount.

  2. Show the QR code

    The till shows a QR code carrying the amount and a reference for the customer to scan.

  3. Approved

    Approved shows on the till.

A payment goes from the customer’s phone to the till on Stellar. There are no card networks in between.

How it works

Four steps from your phone to the till

You make a wallet on your phone, hold JETS in it and scan the till’s QR code. The till shows Approved when the payment arrives.

  1. Create your wallet

    Get the JetSet app and set up your wallet. Your keys are made on your phone and stay there.

  2. Hold JETS

    JETS is a token on the Stellar network. Your balance sits in your own wallet, not with JetSet. How you get JETS is not decided yet.

  3. Scan the till’s QR

    Point your phone at the QR code on the till, check the amount and confirm with Face ID.

  4. The till shows Approved

    The till watches the Stellar ledger and shows Approved when the customer’s payment arrives.

Hardware

The till is an app. The machine is coming.

JetSet Vendor is the till app, in testnet beta.

JetSet Vendor

The till
  • The QR code carries the amount and a reference that belongs to that one bill.
  • It approves a sale only when the payment is on the Stellar ledger.
  • It holds no keys, so it cannot move money: it reads the Stellar ledger to see a payment arrive.
  • With no signal it still shows the QR, and can save the sale to check the ledger later, marked as not settled.

Coming

For business

Paid at the till, final on the ledger

The till shows Approved only when the customer’s payment is on the Stellar ledger.

The vendor pays JetSet’s fee: 1.5% of each till payment. You pay the amount on the bill. Nothing is charged on the test network. No flat fee, no minimum and no monthly charge, and JetSet’s share is returned on a refund of one full payment.

  • Takings arrive in your own account, as JETS.
  • The till holds no keys, so it cannot move money.
  • If the signal drops, the till can save the sale and check the ledger later, marked as not settled.

Custody

What we can and cannot do

JetSet never holds your funds. Your keys live on your phone, and the ledger is the record.

  • Your phone holds the keys

    Keys are made on your phone and kept in its secure storage behind Face ID. JetSet never has them.

  • A 24-word recovery phrase

    The app shows you a 24-word recovery phrase when you set up. It restores your wallet on a new phone.

  • The ledger is the record

    A payment goes from the customer’s phone to the till on Stellar. There are no card networks in between.

  • JETS on the test network

    JETS on the test network has no monetary value. The account that issued it is locked, so it cannot issue more, and clawback is off.

How you get JETS is not decided yet.

Fees

Every fee, in one place

What JetSet charges, who pays it, and what is not decided. The comparison with other ways to pay is in the maths above, where each figure has its source and its date.
