Is there a way to auto change the users selected currency if a certain payment option is selected?

[dnmarket]

I use a Paymate as a payment option and they only allow to be paid in AUD.

 

I don't want to have to ask the customer to manually change to AUD, and I want to keep the default as USD.

 

Is there a way (preferably not too difficult) to auto change the users selected currency if a certain payment option is selected?

 

Thanks in advance :blink:

Hi,

 

For multiple currencies, you can do this. Open your paymate.php file (should be at catalog/includes/modules/payment.paymate.php).

 

Find this code : function process_button() and make some adjustment so that it will look like

 

function process_button() {

global $order, $currencies, $currency;

 

if (MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYMATE_CURRENCY == 'Selected Currency') {

$my_currency = $currency;

} else {

$my_currency = substr(MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYMATE_CURRENCY, 5);

}

if (!in_array($my_currency, array('NZD', 'AUD', 'USD', 'GBP', 'EUR'))) {

$my_currency = 'NZD';

}

 

$process_button_string =

 

Note : you may configure this based on available currencies on your site.

$my_currency = substr(MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYMATE_CURRENCY, 5); = mine have 5 currencies

(!in_array($my_currency, array('NZD', 'AUD', 'USD', 'GBP', 'EUR'))) = all available currencies

$my_currency = 'NZD'; (in your case should be AUD)

 

And this SQL as well

 

insert into configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) values ('Transaction Currency', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYMATE_CURRENCY', 'Selected Currency', 'The currency to use for credit card transactions', '6', '6', 'tep_cfg_select_option(array(\'Selected Currency\',\'Only USD\',\'Only AUD\',\'Only NZD\'), ', now())");

 

Good luck.
