Multi-currency Support
This article explains how you can operate with multiple currencies using Paytia's Secure Virtual Terminal
Multi-currency is an additional licence that can be added to your account to enable you to pick which payment currencies your users are able to process payments for. This licence is used in conjunction with the 'Operating country' and 'Manage languages'.
To check if you have the correct licence activated on your account you can log into the Paytia portal as an admin profile.

Pick operating currency
From the left-hand menu navigate to Manage payments and you will see a sub-menu appear.
From the sub-menu you should see the Operating currency menu.
Click on the Operating currency menu to set up your accepted currency plan.
Note: by default Paytia will use the country and currency set on the sales package you purchased. i.e. GB and GBP for a UK package.
Once loaded you will see your default currency already pre-loaded and set to default.
You are now able to use the + Add button to add additional currencies you want to collect payments.
Select your currency
Note: you can auto-type to filter the list then use the scroll bar on the right to move the list up and down.
As an example, to select USD for the United States it can be selected as follows
Once you are ready, click the Save button to load the currency to your list.
Set default currency
You will now see your new currency loaded.
If you want the new currency to be the default value your users pick from first when taking payment you can use the Set Default slider on the currency to promote it to the default used.
Slide right to show green to activate.
You will then be prompted to confirm the change.
Click the Yes, please button and your change will be active.
The default choice will be shown first in your list.
