[solved] Paypal currency Problem

[Bernrobson]

Hi i have tried to figure this out but cannot find a post that explains how to fix this.

When i change currency to USD or Euro on my website and go into paypal it shows the amount in GBP. I want the amount in paypal to show as the currency selected on my website.

I have set my prestashop and paypal currencies to USD, EURO and GBP.

Can someone please tell me how to resolve this so that paypal shows in the currency selected on my website.

kind reagrds,
bern

Hi
Below is my understanding of Currencies in PrestaShop (Ver 1.3.1)
1. Default currency
There is a default currency setting at your back office of your PrestaShop. This currency is used for

A. As currency conversion base
B. Your product price currency (the number you input at product price box, is in this currency)
c. Default currency of your front store displaying currency. User can select different currency. You must install and configure Currency Block to enable this selection.


2. Paypal restriction currency.
This currency is used for Paypal payment. No matter what currency user selected at front store, when he/she goes Paypal payment page, PrestaShop will be automatically converted to this currency. The conversion rate is based on your setting at PrestaShop. You can select only one currency as Paypal restriction currency from your available currencies.
