# Multi-Currency

> Enable multiple currencies in your online store to offer a localized shopping experience.

## Overview

The Multi-Currency Converter lets you display product prices in different currencies so customers can shop in the currency they are most familiar with. This improves the shopping experience and helps increase conversions from international buyers.

Navigate to **Online Store > Settings > Store Settings > Multi-Currency Converter** to configure your currency options.

## Supported Currencies

You can choose which currencies will be available to customers in your store.

* Your home currency is always included and cannot be removed.
* Additional currencies can be selected from a dropdown list.
* Each currency appears in a table with the following settings:

### Exchange Rate Mode

* **Automatic**\
  HitPay automatically fetches FX rates from partnered providers, and the dashboard displays the last updated timestamp.

* **Manual (Fixed Rate)**\
  You enter your own exchange rate for full pricing control.

### Price Adjustment

You may apply an optional percentage-based markup on top of the selected exchange rate.\
Useful for handling fees or FX fluctuations.\
Works with both automatic and manual rates.

## Default Currency

This is the currency shown when a customer first visits your store.

You can either:

* Select a default currency from your supported list, or
* Enable **Default currency based on customer’s location**

If the customer's country matches one of your supported currencies, the storefront will automatically switch to that currency.\
If not, the default currency will be used.
