Accept foreign currency with a merchant account

How It Works
Accept
Pesos, Yen, Euros, British pounds and every foreign currency from A to Z. It's easy, here's how it works. Merchants establish pricing for their goods and services in the desired foreign currencies and display the information on their Web site accordingly. When the consumer makes a purchase in one of the specified currencies, the merchant sends the transaction to Easy Global Payments by using a Global ePricing certified connection. Easy Global Payments authorizes and processes the transaction for the amount and in the currency submitted and uses conversion rates provided daily by Visa and MasterCard to convert the transaction to U.S. dollars for funding to the merchant. The transaction is processed so that the consumer is charged in his or her “home” currency, and the merchant is ultimately funded in the U.S.-dollar equivalent.


Helps Your Business
  • Potential for increased sales, as customers are more comfortable completing an online transaction in a familiar currency.
  • Less chance of shopping-cart abandonment, since
    no conversion is required of the customer’s transaction amount.
  • Easy to implement into daily operations.
  • Transparent functionality.
Helps Your Customers
  • Provides an enhanced user experience because users receive an “in-country” look and feel while shopping with their native currency displayed on the merchant’s Web site.
  • Economical – it is likely that no conversion fees are passed to the customers by their issuer, since no direct conversion of the transaction amount occurs during settlement.
  • Easy to understand because all transaction amounts are displayed in the customer’s home currency.
