Enable multi-currency payments on your Point of Sale. Cashiers open the multi-currency panel on the payment screen, choose an allowed foreign currency, enter the amount received, and the module converts it to your POS base currency using configured exchange rates. Converted amounts appear on payment lines, customer receipts, and backend POS orders.

Multi-Currency Payments

Accept customer payments in currencies other than your POS base currency directly on the payment screen. Cashiers use Multi Currency Payment when the customer pays in cash or card denominated in a foreign currency.

Automatic Conversion

Select a currency, enter the amount received, and the conversion panel shows the rate and converted total. Click Update Amount to apply the converted value to the active payment line.

Per-POS Configuration

Enable multi-currency mode and pick which currencies appear on each POS shop independently via Allowed Currencies. Only currencies you allow are shown at the register.

Enable on the POS configuration

Open Point of Sale → Configuration → Settings, select your shop, and enable Multi Currency and Multi Currency Conversion. Add the foreign currencies cashiers may use on Allowed Currencies.

Set exchange rates

Activate the currencies you need under Accounting → Configuration → Currencies and keep their rates up to date. The POS uses these rates when converting foreign payments to your base currency.

Open multi-currency at payment

On the payment screen, click Multi Currency Payment to reveal the conversion panel. The order total stays in your POS base currency while you enter the amount received in the customer's currency.

Choose the payment currency

Select from the Allowed Currencies configured on the shop. The dropdown lists only those currencies — not every currency in the database.

Enter amount and update the payment line

Type the amount received in the foreign currency. The conversion box shows the rate and converted total. Click Update Amount to apply the converted value to the selected payment method.

Receipt shows both amounts

The receipt prints the payment in base currency on the main line and the foreign amount underneath, for example Card $ 4.40 with (3.87 EUR) below for the customer and cashier to verify.

Backend order and payments

Open the POS order in the backend to review payment lines with Amount currency and Currency stored for reconciliation and reporting.
