How do you add a new foregin currency for item prices?

I would like item prices to be in a foreign denomination not listed in your options. How do I add a new type of currency

You can enter in your own currency symbol in the ClassiPress admin (this is the "Currency Symbol" field as seen in the ClassiPress demo), however PayPal only supports the currencies listed on their site here.

I tried adding a ₦ (naira symbol) but no luck

I tried changing the default $ payment method to ₦ (naira symbol) but no luck

For official support you may post this the Classipress troubleshooting section of this forum.

Query regarding the currency symbol

Hello Sir/Madam,

As per your below reply; Can I enter my local currency i.e. UAE currency 'AED' for the Item prices under "Currency Symbol" field as seen in the ClassiPress demo or Does it only offer $ ,€, £ and Yen for Item prices?


"You can enter in your own currency symbol in the ClassiPress admin (this is the "Currency Symbol" field as seen in the ClassiPress demo)."


Thanks

Yes you can enter your own currency in the field but you can only collect payments on currencies that are supported by Paypal being the main payment gateway.
