EmbPay

Which currencies you can sell in

The product form offers five currencies and the API accepts any Stripe-supported code. Prices are never converted automatically based on where your buyer is.

You choose one currency per product and your buyer is charged in it. There is no automatic conversion anywhere in EmbPay: a buyer in Tokyo looking at a product priced in euros pays euros, and their bank handles the conversion.

In the dashboard

The product form offers five currencies: US dollars, euros, pounds sterling, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars. US dollars is the default. This short list is a limitation of the form, and we would rather say so than imply a longer one.

Through the API

The API accepts any three-letter currency code Stripe supports, and handles minor units correctly, including the awkward ones. Zero-decimal currencies such as Japanese yen have no fractional part, and three-decimal currencies such as Kuwaiti dinar carry an extra digit and must be evenly divisible by ten to satisfy Stripe's rule.

Mixing currencies across products

You can price different products in different currencies. Be aware of one consequence in reporting: the analytics totals add order amounts together without converting between currencies and display the result with a dollar sign. If you sell in more than one currency, treat those headline totals as approximate and read the per-order figures instead.
