Switching Store Currency

Your store currency determines the currency used for all transactions, pricing, and reporting in SureCart. While it is possible to change your store currency, doing so has significant implications you should understand before proceeding

What happens when you switch currency?

  1. Future Orders – All new orders will be processed in the new currency. Any checkout or payment initiated after the change will use the updated currency.
  2. Prices Missing – Prices are not automatically converted to the new currency. After switching, you will need to manually update all product prices to reflect the new currency. Until you do, products may not have valid prices and will be unavailable for purchase.
  3. Reporting Incorrect – Reports are displayed in the current store currency only. Orders that were placed in a previous currency will not appear in your reports. This means your historical reporting data will no longer be visible in the dashboard.
  4. Affiliate Referrals/Payouts Change – Any new affiliate referrals and payouts created after the switch will use the new currency. Previously recorded referrals and payouts will remain in the old currency.
  5. Existing Subscription Renewal Errors – Active subscriptions created in the old currency may fail to renew after the switch, since renewals will attempt to process in the new currency.

Who should (and shouldn’t) switch currency?

Changed by mistake?

If your store currency was changed in error, you can switch it back to the original currency. Once reverted, everything will return to normal — your previous orders, reports, and subscriptions will function as they did before.
