Currency is depending on your paypal account. There is no option to change that within SC itself. Paypal will do conversions for you.

The functionality provided by SC is limited to setting a few paypal variables.
You are better off calling the paypal library on your own, so you have complete control over the library variables including the currency_code.

Paypal Currency

Hello !

I’m coming from talking with PayPal. You need to send a parameter from scriptcase, the currency_code parameter !
In Scriptcase AFAIK, there’s no possibility to set it in any way… Big problem !

I really need to know how this could be set.

I’ve tried wit this little form and it works perfectly !

<form action=“https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr” method=“post”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“cmd” value="_xclick">
<input type=“hidden” name=“business” value="paypal@sardaterra.com" >
<input type=“hidden” name=“item_name” value=“Union Jack Flag”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“amount” value=“20”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“currency_code” value=“EUR”>
<input type=“hidden” name=“undefined_quantity” value=“1”>
<input type=“image” src=“https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc.gif” border=“0” name=“submit” width=“73” height=“44”>
</form>

Here the hidden parameter is passed to PayPal and euro amount is showed :wink:

How can i do this wit Scriptcase ?

Thank you

There is a webinar about PayPal by Albert, but I don’t find right now from mobile. Do a search on youtube, I think its there

Sorry, can’t find it but it could be so easy if SC could export every PayPal variable… we could simly use them as an API layer…

I could I send a currency_code variable to PayPal to use EUR instead of USD ?

Thank you
