Requirements
Multi Currency support is available in the Recurly Professional and Enterprise plans. You may run transactions in more than one currency through one or more payment gateways that accept the currencies you wish to collect.
Configuration
Once Multi Currency support is enabled on your Recurly account, you can then specify which currencies you want to accept for your account. When a currency is added to your accepted list, you may then define pricing for your subscription plans and coupons using the new currency.
After configuring the currencies you accept, update your existing subscription plans with pricing in all your currencies. When editing pricing, you can define prices independently by currency.
Finally, verify the currencies you accept are supported by your configured payment gateways. The Currencies Configuration page displays the currencies supported by your current gateway configuration.
Specifying a Currency
Hosted Payment Pages
If you accept multiple currencies, the hosted payment pages will default to the most appropriate currency for your customer, based on their country. The customer's country is determined with an automatic geo-IP address lookup. The customer may select a different currency before completing the order. If the most appropriate currency is not available, we will use your default currency.
Recurly.js
Recurly.js forms accept a currency parameter so you can specify the currency when creating a new subscription or transaction. Please see the Recurly.js documentation for more information.
API
All requests made to the API with a monetary amount must also specify a currency. This includes:
- Adjustments (charges and credits),
- Subscriptions
- Transactions
Supported Currencies
In order for Recurly to be able to process transactions in a specific currency, your gateway must also be able to process payments in that currency. The list below attempts to reflect the complete list of currencies supported by Recurly and the gateways with which we are integrated. Keep in mind that Recurly's integration with a specific gateway may not support all currencies listed below regardless of that gateway's support for that currency. To be certain, look at your site to determine which currencies are available to you.

Note: Do you need a currency that's not listed above? If the currency you need is supported by your gateway, please contact Recurly Support to request support in Recurly for the currency.
Invoices
All charges and credits on an invoice will be in the same currency. Because Recurly does not perform currency conversion, Recurly will not combine charges of different currencies on the same invoice.
Subscriptions
When a new subscription starts, the currency is saved on the subscription level. You may not change the currency of the subscription after the subscription has started: you must terminate the subscription and start another one in its place.
Multi Currency and Payment Gateway Support
Some gateways may require that you open additional accounts in order to collect additional currencies. Because currency support varies by payment gateway, please contact your gateway for more information specific to your account.
