Single non-default currency on a per form basis/Base Currency set on per form basis

Ben Meredith

If my site is in USD as the global default currency, I want the ability to create a new form that only accepts a different currency. The most common use case would be for a currency where only one gateway accepts that currency, like South African Rand (PayFast). I don't want to change my entire site's default currency for one form where I am supporting Rand.

Since this is possible with the Visual Form Builder, and we do not plan to update the older form templates, this request is considered complete. Please update to the latest version of GiveWP and use the Visual Form Builder to take advantage of this feature.

This is possible with the Visual Form Builder.
To set your currencies per donation form: 
First you will need to select all of your supported currencies by navigating to Donations > Settings > Currency Switcher. 
You will have a list of all the currencies you can support. You will need to select the ones you plan to make forms for. Then click Save at the bottom of the page. 
Then you will want to click Fetch Exchange Rates so that the currency will display correctly on your forms based on what your base currency/country of origin is set to.
Next, you can set a different default currency per donation form by creating the form with the new builder > Edit Form > Select the Donation Level block. 
On the right-hand side, you will see Currency Switcher listed. 
Clicking Currency Switcher will reveal more options. 
You will want to Enable Currency Switcher, Override Site-wide Options.
Then select the Default Currency from the dropdown. Next, select Set Supported Currencies. You only want the one currency supported on this form.
Then save and publish your form.
I have a screencast of the process here: https://www.loom.com/share/2c35ecd1fd1842d3a185327a377ec5a0?sid=06a0759d-dc47-416a-96ed-e778bb28c080
Repeat form creation process for each form that requires a single supported currency.
Note: Not all payment gateways support every currency.

100% - this is a must-have capability that would add immense value to the existing "currency switcher" option.

International donations needs to be frictionless - this is critical!

We also need this feature. Our client is based in South Africa with the default currency ZAR but accepts donations via Payfast and Paypal. Donors need to manually select USD on the Paypal form which is causing confusion. We need to be able to set USD as the default currrency on the Paypal form only.

I need this also

We need this feature as well! We are trying to run campaigns which are country specific. At the moment, it is holding us back from running these campaigns.

This is just the feature we need too. Our charity has branches in Australia, US, Canada and UK. People are often using the wrong form to donate on. I try and spell it out, but folk don't read! Seems logical that with the ability to connect to a range of Stripe accounts, one should be able set different default currencies. Using the 'currency switcher' is a bit clutsy, I think. Robin.

We target different audiences via social media and campaigns are tailored based on geographic location. This feature is essential to our potential success.

This is similar to a couple of other points under feature requests. As an org this is an incredibly important feature for our international donors.

It should work with the currency switcher addon , but no. Only if you have GiveWP version 1. Because we wait for 1 year and still waiting Currency Switcher to be compatible with multi step form
