US vs Int pricing

[jmurch]

I have a customer that needs to present different item pricing for US vs non-US customers. I have the forced login mod working so that I can tell who is looking/buying. I was looking for community input on the best way to do this. I currently am attempting to have 2 currencies, USD and USD/Int. USD is 100%, USD/Int is 99%. This gives international buyers a 1% markup. I need to figure out how to force non-US countries to see the USD/Int currency and US customers to see the USD currency and this approach should work.

 

The other option is the SPPC mod. Any better ways of doing this?

 

TIA

Well, not completely sure how it'd work without trying to code it but couldn't you just set $currency after login?

 

So you have USD in currencies with value=1.00000 and, probably, an id of 1. Then USD/Int with a value of whatever 1.00000 - (1.00000 * 1%) is and an id of 2. So when it processes the login and determines the us/non-us stuff, have it set $currency to 1 or 2 respectively.

 

You probably have to make sure Switch to Default Language Currency is set to false in My Store configuration and see if/how it would play with the currency code in application_top.php, but maybe something like this in the login code:

 if (non-US customer){
 $currency = 2;
} else {
 $currency = 1;
}
tep_session_register('currency');

 

or something like that
