When I enter the buy now link the currency is set according to my location, I want to force the currency to always be in USD.
How do I prevent the currency from switching to local currency in Bluesnap BuyNow link?
You can use the BuyNow URL parameter currency to force the page to open on a specific currency, such as USD. For instance, a BuyNow 2 link such as this:
https://sandbox.bluesnap.com/buynow/checkout?sku2331065=1&storeid=21617
will open in your local currency. But this BuyNow2 link:
https://sandbox.bluesnap.com/buynow/checkout?sku2331065=1&storeid=21617¤cy=USD
will always open in USD currency.

I have e-book selling website where I used a paypal button to accept the payment. The button is created from paypal website and its code snippet is added in the form to show the button(not via api). When I set the currency of the button to USD then indian paypal users are not able to use the button. It says "Merchant Does bot accept payment in your currency". If I change it to INR then it only accepts the indian customers only.
Is there any way to accept all currencies via a common button. I means Indians could pay me in INR and Others in USD.
Thanks in advance.
No, separate currencies are needed due to Indian regulations, and there is no support for combining multiple currencies (and their respective amounts) within a single button, other than coding it yourself.
If you generate buttons at PayPal, you need one button for domestic payments in INR, and another button for international payments in a currency such as USD.
It's possible to make something like a dropdown or radio buttons that switch a single PayPal button between the configurations for amount1/USD and amount2/INR -- i.e., give the buyer a way to select their country and change the amount/currency based on that -- but to do that you will need to write some custom JavaScript code to make the switch.
My transactions look kinda like this now:
displaying both euro and usd
Is there a way for it to only display Euro?
When logged in to PayPal you click the activity button on the top left and there

However this doesn't change all curencies on my transactions page, nor does it remember the chosen currency.
Yes you can change your account's primary currency so all transactions are automatically transferred to your choice.

I have a shopify store with default currency as PKR. I want to integrate 2checkout payment method for credit card transaction. But the problem is that 2checkout's standard currency is not PKR. Unless I change my store's default currency to USD integration does not work. Can there by a work around where the shopify checkout remains PKR but when the client selects credit card and proceeds to payment, the money is converted to USD and passed to 2checkout.
This is not posible as Shopify checkout works with default store's currency. Why don't you try with another payment gateway like PayPal?
Paypal makes it really easy to create a donate URL. A donor can enter a custom $ amount or use a fixed one. We'll use the custom amount, since it's more flexible. Is there anyway to allow the donor to enter a custom amount, and have PayPal display a checkbox for example to allow this amount to be a recurring monthly donation via a URL?
We checked out the "subscribe" button, but it only returns a form, not a URL, and didn't see anywhere to let the donor choose the amount.
Basically, this should be an optional field in the donate URL. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
You'll need to use standard subscription buttons or the Recurring Payments API. Either way you could setup your page so the user chooses those options on your site prior to being sent over to PayPal.
use cmd=_donations. Paypal will prompt for an amount and whether it is recurring.
PayPal now has recurring donations, for mobile checkout, by default. See this blog post.
Is it possible to modify the currency list in PayPal. I would like remove some currencies.
There is a list of currencies in Pay Pal. See the currencies here: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/dmo/demo_mc_1-outside . One can accept/pay in more than one currency.
The way to cancel or to stop using one of your currencies (or to make a currency disappear, if you wish) is to click on the "Currency converter" link (on the right to your main balance figure/number (where the amount of money you have on your Pay Pal account is written) - and that will take you to a page with your available active currencies, there select one and deactivate.
There's no 'currency list' in PayPal.
