how to embed currency converter on my website - converters

The base currency of my website is USD, and I want that when users enter a particular amount of USD (say 10 USD), it gets converted into the local currency (say INR) as per the prevalent forex rate. There are many online currency converters available that converts the currency values. But I want a solution wherein users are just required to enter the amount in USD and it changes to its respective INR value and they can proceed with the INR amount for transactions. In short I want a solution where converted currency values are returned for use on my webpages. I tried using the following code on my website but it just changes the USD amount to INR and displays it. I want to use the displayed results for proceeding further with the transactions. Anyone please help. Thanks in advance.

Magento: Display multiple currencies in admin and frontend without currency rates

I am trying to implement a new currency called "points" into my magento (CE 1.9.2.1) installation. I already installed this currency with my module and an installer script, marked it as allowed and I am possible to switch between "EUR" and "Points" in the frontend.
Here's the trick. Magento expects a currency rate for this new currency. But there's no currency rate, so that points can't be converted to EUR and EUR can't be converted to points. These currencies are independent.
The customers who are using this store should have the opportunity to buy this product with
points (no reward points. you can not earn points by buying a product) OR
EUR.
Therefore I'd like to know if there is a possibility to
Display multiple currencies for products (Available for 5.00€ or 200 Points)
Add a field in the admin product view (Price (€); Points). This field "points" has to be connected with my installed currency "points".
Do you have any ideas how to implement this? Any help would be appreciated.

Remove ordered currency from magento admin

Does anyone know a quick way to remove the ordered currency from the order summary detail and order mail?
I am having Sage pay currency conversion issue. So the base currency and ordered currency have the same value. So I want to remove ordered currency from order mail and order details
For example at the moment on our multi store setup we have order summary displaying like so:
Grand Total £447.60
[€447.60]
Here £447.60 value is correct but the conversion to euro is not correct. So we want to display the totals in just the base currency.

Is it possible to send custom currency type to Paypal using PayPal PayFlow?

Is there any way to send Paypay custom currency type other than base currency ? Currently we have 2 store views for US and CANADA and we would like to accept payment in the native currency.
US store funds will be received in USD currency and CA store funds will be received in CAD currency irrespective of the base currency. Please advise.
Yes you can use different currencies for Magento payflow. When you are sending data to payflow using setexpresscheckout method then there is a field named "Currency". You can set value to USD or CAD as per the respective store.

Change base currency on Magento live store

I'm looking for a way to change the base currency without having to update thousands of product prices.
To my knowledge such an action is not supported from the backend alone it seems.
The situation is as follows:
EUR is our base currency and all our prices and postage rates are set in EUR of course.
We also support AUS, GBP, USD etc.
The problem is that our store is located in a country that does not use any of these currencies. Therefore it would be better for us to change the base currency to the one used
in our location so we can set product prices and postages in this currency so that they always remain accurate regardless of the up and downs of the currency market.
Can this be done without going through all the products manually and update the prices (or, for that matter use a spreadsheet import)?
You could check out Product Base Currency, it's a commercial extension though: http://innoexts.com/promotion/product-base-currency/
It allows to set base price in a local currency for each product separately. It supports the following attributes: Price, Special Price, Tier Price, and Group Price and provides capability to import/export products in multiple base currencies.

Magento multi store multi currency

i have 2 store, 1 for USD 2 for CAD
my first store working fine, my 2nd store shows product value CAD when i send in paypal that time CAD value convert in USD, can you suggest me how to slove it i need when paypal goes its show CAD.
The solution to this problem lies in this Magento thread; here’s a summary for anyone struggling with this:
You need to set-up multiple websites, one for each currency (not just store views, complete websites)
Set ‘Catalog Price Scope’ to ‘Website’ in System > Configuration > Catalog
Set the Base Currency of each website to its respective currency in System > Configuration > Currency Setup
Set all your currency rates to ‘1.0’ in System > Manage Currency Rates
Now you can set your product prices per store when editing a product, voila!
