Accepting Unsupported Currencies with Paypal Module

[eyadfr]

Hello everyone!

As you know, Paypal accepts only order with currencies accepted by Paypal. However, most of us run e-Commerce websites that use different kinds of currencies. 

I was thinking of a way to add a small code somewhere to Paypal module that does the following:

- Checks the ISO code of the current order

- Converts item prices, taxes, subtotals & totals to USD (for example)

- Passes the order to Paypal to complete the payment processing

Has anyone done something like this? Or anybody can help with the needed code modifications?

Thanks

Hi, maybe this article is a bit old but could still be very relevant.

It's a bit outdated, images broken and in spanis  But if you know a bit of PHP you could adapt the modifications to your version.

Hi Jose, The files you mention do not exist in Paypal v5.1.2. Any pointers would be helpful. Thank you.
