Dumb PayPal question lol

3 replies
I've never had clients overseas, except in another business. However I just thought of something, if I started getting clients from overseas and they went to purchase through my site...obviously my PayPal is in U.S. Dollars. But if their in another country and they went to pay, do they see the amount in U.S. Dollars or is it automatically converted to their currency so they know how much to pay in their own currency?

I think I bought something from Europe once through paypal, but can't recall if it converted or if i had to do some calculation to fig out what the cost was in dollars as I do recall the amount being in pounds.

    It is automatically converted to their currency:

      We have several regular Non-USA customers and we simply quote in US Dollars (USD) and give them our paypal address. I am not sure how it looks on their end but we have been using Paypal for about 5 years now and always received the correct amount we have quoted our clients.

    I have used paypal to pay for items that were in euros. It automatically charged the conversion rate without any prompting from myself or the vendor. That is a question well worth a live chat with paypal or a call into them.
