Currency Display: Setup

Plan Availability: ✓ Soho | ✓ Pro | ✓ Plus | ✓ Enterprise  | ✓ Flex |
Locate: Manage > Add-ons > Marketing > Currency Display
Prerequisites: Admin permissions to Manage your account and Integrations.

In this article, we will review the Currency Display feature from Checkfront, which allows your Customers to choose which currency they would like to display within Checkfront booking pages. 

This is not to be confused with the currency in which you transact, which is determined by your Base Currency (Manage >Setup > Locale). Currency Display instead simply helps your Customer view amounts in their preferred currency!

Note, rates used for Currency Display are updated daily on weekdays.

 

Setup in Checkfront

Back to top
Find Add-on
  1. First, go to Manage and then Add-ons in the top-left hand menu.
  2. Next, do a keyword search for Currency Display or navigate directly to the Marketing section under which the Add-on is listed.
  3. Then, click on the Add-on tile to initiate Setup.

 

Select Currencies

From the Currency Display modal, select one or more Currencies to offer to your Customers as display options. Your company's Base Currency is selected by default and cannot be deselected.

If not already your Base Currency, USD - US Dollars, EUR - Euro, GBP - UK Pounds and CAD - Canadian Dollars are also selected but can be deselected, if they don't apply to your Customers.

Once you have chosen the combination of Currency Display options to offer, simply click Activate to save your selections. Next, we will take a look at how this feature works for your Customer.

Currency Display Hero

Customers can now choose which currency to display on your booking pages, by selecting their preferred currency from the drop-down menu provided! It is a simple as that.

 

Currency Display Booking Modal

Currencies will then display as selected throughout the booking process with the exception of the Payment page and Booking Invoice as we will explain later.

 

Estimated Amount

A reminder displays within Create Booking, that amounts are estimates only and that final transaction amounts will be in the company's Base Currency as opposed to their selected display currency. 

 

Currency Display Payment

Finally, the Booking Invoice displays all amounts (Total, Sub-total, Sales Tax, Transaction Fee, Donations...) in your account's Base Currency, so that the Customer understands the currency in which the payment is transacted.
