currencyConversion

Find currency conversion rate for a transaction amount.

This method allows you to determine the rate of conversion for different currencies in multi-currency transactions. A merchant account must have support for specific types of currency before it will be able to run multi-currency transactions.

To determine if a currency is supported by a merchant account, use either the getSupportedCurrencies or the getAccountDetails method.

Each currency type is assigned a three digit numeric code (ie: USD=840, Japanese yen=392). You must enter the three digit code for both the original currency and the converted currency in a conversion. The Currency Code list provides all of the three digit codes and their corresponding currencies for international currency conversion.

If you would like to add support for multi-currency transactions to a merchant account please contact the merchant's service provider or customer service.
