Instant Coming Soon: Accept Multiple Currencies for PayPal Website Payments
Many website sellers have requested the ability to accept payments in currencies other than U.S. Dollars (USD). As a result, in mid-November PayPal will be extending multiple currency support to support for four additional currencies: Canadian Dollars (C$), Euros (€), Pounds Sterling (£), and Japanese Yen (¥).
To create a new payment button in your desired currency, choose one of the five supported currencies from the "Currencies" drop-down menu in the PayPal Button Factory.
To convert an existing payment button, just add one line of HTML code to the payment button to indicate the currency of the payment. For example, if your currency of choice is Euros, the currency_code line below should be added to the button's HTML code:
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="EUR">
Use the following "currency_code" values to specify the currency
of your payment:
"CAD" Canadian Dollar (C$)
"EUR" Euro (€)
"GBP" Pounds Sterling (£)
"JPY" Japanese Yen (¥)
"USD" US Dollar ($)
Note: If you only accept U.S. Dollar ($) payments, you do not need to update your payment buttons. If the currency_code for a payment button is omitted, the default currency will be U.S. Dollars.
Additional information will be available after we launch this feature.
Information supplied by PayPal
Instant Starting on October 9, to increase the ease of conducting international transactions, PayPal will begin to support transactions in multiple currencies. The initial roll-out of Multiple Currencies will give PayPal account holders the option of sending and receiving their payments in Pounds Sterling or Euros, as well as U.S. Dollars.
When the Multiple Currencies feature is launched, sellers will be able to choose the currencies in which they would like to conduct business by setting up their Payment Receiving Preferences. Sellers will continue to transact only in U.S. Dollars unless they elect to accept Euro and/or Pound Sterling payments.
Sellers who choose to receive payments in multiple
currencies will have the option of maintaining separate balances for each
currency in their PayPal account, or automatically converting all payments
they receive into a single currency.
