Q. Can the WPM eSales system handle Euro payments?
- All esales transactions are valued and charged out in sterling as they are connected to the University's sterling bank account. However, it is possible for an overseas customer to pay in Euros and for this then be converted into sterling automatically by the system. This occurs where WPM recognises that they are based in Europe and the customer is offered the choice either to pay in sterling or an equivalent rate in Euros. If they chose to pay in Euros the value is calculated either using WPM's own daily rate or the customer can select to ignore this and use their bank's own exchange rate instead.

A similar process works in some other countries and currencies. Contact Shirley Bidgood [1] for more details
