I'm looking into setting up 2 new sites - One of the US market and the other Europe.

I plan on taking a snapshot of my existing site and UK pricing.

Are there any software utilities available that can automatically change £ sterling prices into US$ or Euros using the current Exchange rate.

I would then like to hide the £ sterling prices on the site and only display the US$ or Euro. Obviously I will also need to process the orders in the same currency.

Is this possible to do ??

I don't have this available off-the-shelf but will be writing a utility to do this fairly soon for one of my customers. Email me at jan@mole-end.biz if you are interested.

Hey Mark

your tiggypig site looks great, especially the conversion line euro, US dollar other etc

How did you do the currency conversion under each product?

How did you do this? what's the code? do I have to edit a template or create my own one?

It would be really useful to put it on our web site, currently, we only have it in our checkout area. Customers ask what the prices are in USD all the time and I have been looking to find away to do a conversion for each product before they "add to cart". Looks like you've mastered it!

If you can spare the time, please could you advise me?
