Here’s how you can handle foreign currency with PayPal
• When you receive a payment in a currency in which you do not
already hold a balance, PayPal will prompt you to open a balance
for that currency, convert to your primary balance, or deny the
payment. Payments in currencies for which you hold a balance will
automatically be applied to the correct balance.
• You will see a summary of each currency balance on your
Account Overview page.
• You can manage your currency balances in your Profile.
This includes opening and closing balances, as well as transferring
between balances.
• Transferring funds between different currency balances is easy
and instant. A foreign exchange calculator is provided to help you
determine the exact amount prior to completing the transfer.
• You can auto-convert payments to your primary currency via
a Payment Receiving Preference in your Profile.
This is useful if you wish to display prices in different currencies,
but only do business in a single currency.
