Payout currency
- For PayPal: you'll receive funds in your chosen payout currency.
- For VGen Payments: you'll receive funds in your default bank currency.
Client payment currency
Clients can choose to pay in any of our 82 supported currencies but will incur additional currency conversion fees if:
- For PayPal: they don't pay in your operating currency;
- For VGen Payments: they don’t pay in USD. That’s why our system default is USD.
