Multi-Currency Support in PayPal

What is it & why you need it


You can already use Stripe to set up multiple currencies for your products. Now, the multi-currency and geo pricing feature is extended and will be supported in PayPal.


This will help you to accept payments from a wider audience while letting them pay in their respective currencies. As a result, your users will find it more convenient to purchase products and make payments since you can keep both Stripe and PayPal enabled.



How it works


Everything will work as previously in terms of the multi-currency and geo pricing feature. Now, your users can conveniently pay in their choice of gateway between Stripe and PayPal.


Note that you have to use currencies that are supported in both Stripe and PayPal to use both gateways simultaneously. 


All you have to do is keep PayPal enabled, set up the currencies, set the pricings for your products, and EzyCourse will automatically show the currency based on the geographical location of the visitor.



How to get started using it


First, enable PayPal from Site Settings -> Payment tab.
