Looks (and sounds) like it might be very helpful.

However as I'm in the UK, any chance of currency conversion?



Do you actually need currency conversions (in the sense that you deal in multiple currencies and want to normalize them to one) or do you just want to be able to use pounds vs dollars and have the numbers like reasonable for a UK person?

For sure we ultimately want to support the former, but worked on systems that do this, there's a fair amount of complexity depending on what you really need to do.


Ideally when international ops come about it'd be helpful to have complete currency conversion. It's easier to work around than the whole site being dollar only.

For the time being just being able to use pounds to make the numbers clear for us over here would be fine though.

edit: sounds like that's the plan from the reply above. looks good :)


I just added the currency selector into plan settings. So you can display in dollars, pounds, or euros now. Intended as a first step.


like andy said, currency conversion is something that's in our plans, but will be a little while. on the other hand, we hope to get at least different currency display options (as opposed to just $) in settings very soon.
