€ as a payment for resources.

I believe there should be a € payment for resources.

Paypal already does auto currency conversion when paying and You could just put price you want by changing amount of € to usd equivalent.

There are bunch of other stuff to add/fix before that, that are a lot more important.

While it would be simple to implement, all that would change would be who’s taking the conversion fee so it doesn’t really make sense from a business perspective.

I stay in the uk our currency is £ GBP however even tho this site allows that I still use $ USD as its pretty simple to convert and saves the customers trying to convert it and checking if they can afford the resource.

IMO stick with USD for all resources

I think they are meaning by that conversion fees are a pain not gonna lie here, I had to pay a Designer 1 euro short because the conversion fee, not saying Ill pay them through mcm but Im talking in general I feel the pain.

Then why in the first place there are £ and not everything is in $?

Most sites like spigotmc or even xenforo.com allow payments with €. I don't see why additional currency like the EURO would do any damage.

And as a Europian i highly prefer euros than $. Like British people prefer £ over $.

$, € and £ are the biggest currencies so I believe all three of them should be an option.

They can be big, but acceptance should really be based upon usability. Many services use USD over other currencies which imposes additional costs to accept those currencies. As of right now, someone still needs to pay currency conversion fees which makes it not so economically viable, not to mention conversion rate fluctuation. USD to USD is always 1:1, costs will barely ever change. Other currencies can fluctuate. On top of all this, we still don’t know for certain how BREXIT will impact the UK and European Union financially.

I think this is a bit outside of the scope of our resources.


I personally don't have a problem with us allowing resource authors to pick the currency they sell into euros, especially since we already allow GBP. I think we either need to remove all non-USD currencies or add euros as an option.

I'll move this to pending, thanks for the suggestion.

 

[Mick]

This was implemented in our previous announcement, I'll move this to accepted

Thanks for the suggestion!
