PaypalMe help with foreign payments

Hello all. I have a paypal.me link which I use often to sell my crafts. I have only sold within the UK so far however I am having an increasing number of people from the USA enquire about my products. If I send my link with the value at the end (paypal.me/myname/25) will it appear to them as £25 or $25? Will I need to ask them to select GBP from the dropdown menu in order for me to receive GBP?

 

Thank you in advance

You can request a specific currency by adding the currency code to the amount. So to ask for Australian Dollars, for example, you would use PayPal.Me/DiaRusso/25AUD. 

 

Use "USD" to request in USD or any other currency supported by PayPal.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

@sharpiemarker Thank you, that's really helpful to know. Do you know whether either the buyer or seller gets charged a currency conversion fee?
