He can do but using a AUD card would be preferable.

Oh, right. Is that because it looks better because he's applying from Australia? I just thought that he could avoid the fx thing if he used his UK card.

Since he’ll be paying in AUD he should be using his AUD card.

Re: Advice on most suitable Visa application

Hi, we’ve just applied from Australia. Were given prices in AUD for visa and IHS, used an AUD credit card (CBA) and were charged 3% ($200) as the merchant is based overseas. It’s certainly not an inexpensive exercise.
