Configuring the checkout's "Multi-currency pricing" settings

Follow the steps below to configure multi-currency pricing (MCP) in the checkout. With multi-currency pricing, your checkout customers can opt to pay in the currency of their choice while you receive settlement and reporting in Canadian dollars.

Note:     If you want to use MCP in your checkout, the MCP feature must be enabled on your Moneris Go portal store (contact us to enable this feature on your store).  The multi-currency settings described in this procedure are applicable only to the payment page through which you are integrating Moneris Checkout and are not applicable to your entire Website.

Important! To integrate Moneris Checkout into your ecommerce solution, you need to create and configure your Moneris Checkout profile in conjunction with developing your ecommerce solution according to Moneris' integration specifications as outlined in How to get started.

Ensure the checkout profile that you want to configure is open on your screen.

Note:     To reopen an existing profile, see Reopening a Moneris Checkout profile. To create a new profile, see Creating a Moneris Checkout profile.

While the profile is open in your configurator, click on Multi-currency in the navigation pane to jump to the "Multi-currency" module (shown below).

Enable/disable multi-currency pricing (MCP) in the checkout:

To disable MCP:

a.    Unmark the Enable multi-currency box.

b.    Continue at step 4.

To enable MCP:

a.    Checkmark the Enable multi-currency box.

b.    Enable/disable location-based multi-currency pricing (geo-location) in the checkout: 11 domaine
Geo-location detects the IP address of customers using your checkout and displays product prices and transaction amounts in the currency corresponding to the country/location in which customers are using the checkout subject to the following restrictions: If a customer's IP address does not correspond with a currency that your checkout is configured to support, the checkout will display prices and transaction amounts in United States dollars (USD). If a customer's IP address does not correspond with a supported currency and your checkout is not configured to support USD, the checkout will display prices and transaction amounts in Canadian dollars (CAD). 

To enable geo-location, checkmark the Geo-locate box.

To disable geo-location, unmark the Geo-locate box.

c.    Enable/disable BIN lookup in the checkout:22BIN Lookup is supported only for Visa and Mastercard. BIN lookup compares the customer billing currency (determined by card issuer) against the default currencies supported by your checkout (or, if geo-location is enabled, BIN lookup compares customer billing currency against the currency corresponding to the location in which the customer is using the checkout). If BIN lookup detects a discrepancy and the checkout supports more than one default currency, the checkout will prompt the customer to choose a preferred (supported) currency for the transaction. If the checkout supports only one default currency, the customer will not be prompted to choose a different currency.

To enable BIN lookup, checkmark the BIN lookup box.

To disable BIN lookup, unmark the BIN lookup box.

d.    Configure optional currency settings as desired:

To enable/disable a specific default currency, see Enabling/disabling a default currency.

Editing the percentage markup(s):

To edit one currency at a time, see Editing a currency's percentage markup: "Add all currencies" disabled.

 To edit all currencies simultaneously, see Editing a currency's percentage markup: "Add all currencies" enabled.

Adding/removing supplemental currency listing(s):

To add a specific currency, see Enabling a supplementary currency.

To remove a specific currency, see Disabling/de-listing a supplementary currency.

To add all supplemental currency listings simultaneously, see Enabling/listing all supplemental currencies simultaneously.

To remove all supplemental currency listings simultaneously, see Disabling/de-listing all supplementary currencies simultaneously. 

Save the profile's new configuration:
