FastSpring has added support for four additional local currencies to help digital businesses deliver a localized checkout experience. These new currencies make it easier to price products in the buyer’s native currency and increase trust at the point of purchase.

  • Hungarian Forint (HUF) – Hungary.
  • Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) – Indonesia.
  • Saudi Arabian Riyal (SAR) – Saudi Arabia.
  • Emirati Dirham (AED) – United Arab Emirates.

These currencies, along with more than 20 others, are live on across the FastSpring platform now. You can display prices, accept payments, and settle transactions in these local currencies, allowing you to offer buyers a more trusted and seamless checkout experience.

Why Local Currencies Matter

Local currency support helps create a more familiar purchase flow, especially when paired with the right payment methods. It’s a simple way to meet customer expectations in key growth markets, differentiate from competitors, and lay the groundwork for regional expansion. Additional benefits include:

  • Reaching more buyers: Increase confidence and reduce drop-off by pricing in the buyer’s native currency.
  • Differentiating your brand: Show customers you understand their market with localized pricing.
  • Gaining regional insights: Use currency-specific data to inform pricing, forecasting, and performance analysis.
