How do I manage my currencies with PayPal?

You can send and receive money in multiple currencies with PayPal. 

On your Money page, you can add a new currency, change your primary currency, or close a currency.

Here's how to add a currency:

  1. Go to Money
  2. Click + Add a currency. 
  3. Select the currency you want and click Add currency. 

Here's how to change your primary currency:

  1. Go to Money
  2. Click Make primary beside the desired currency. 

Here's how to close a currency:

  1. Go to Money
  2. Click Close currency beside the currency you want to close. 

If you receive a payment in a different currency, it’s automatically accepted in the currency received, and a new currency balance is opened in your PayPal account.

You can change this setting on your Money page.
