The preferred currency display feature is now live on our website!
This new functionality allows users to view lot prices in their chosen currency. Please note that this is a display-onlyfeature — users can view prices in their selected currency, but all payments will still be processed in the lot’s base currency.
Key Points:
-
User Experience: Customers can select their preferred display currency from a predefined list of supported currencies.
-
Currency Display: Once selected, all lot prices on the website will be shown in the user’s chosen currency for easier browsing.
-
Payment Process: Despite the price display in the selected currency, all payments are still processed in the base currency of the lot (currently, we only support payments in EUR).
Benefits:
-
Enhanced Usability: This feature improves the user experience by allowing users to view prices in the currency most familiar to them.
-
International Reach: It helps attract a broader international audience by supporting multiple currencies while maintaining consistency in transactions.
-
Transparency: Users can easily assess the cost of lots in their preferred currency before proceeding with the payment.
