Hi, I want to add the facility to add payments via PayPal

I have version 6.5 of VPASP.

The problem is
1 - I already use another payment gateway - this is working perfectly.

2 - I enabled the standard PayPal gateway and what happens is that it sends the correct amount to PayPal but in the incorrect currency - US Dollars. I am in South Africa - we use Rands - this works fine with the VCS gateway I currently use (and will continue using). But as soon as I use the PayPal gateway - it shows the correct amount but in dollars. This means the customer may pay up to 8 times more. I allow the option for customers to change to their local currency - via the standard add on. Even if they choose US Dollars, the amount goes to paypal as the south african rand amount but in dollars.

Anyone have a work around for this.

Also - is there anyway for me to get the enchanced PayPal gateway - I tried logging in but my free download period has expired and it is not worth my while going to version 7 of VP ASP as I have customized many of my templates to be suitable for my store.

Any help is most welcome

You can change the currency yourself by opening file paypalgateway.asp and then locate this code :

const CurrencyCode="USD"

please try maybe change USD to ZAR.

I hope this information helps you ahmed.

Chaoo..

Diego.
