2Checkout adds 13 more supported currencies to its payment platform

2Checkout.com announced the addition of another 13 international currencies to its total of 30 supported currencies.

Thus, at the moment 2Checkout’s hosted payment platform includes among others the Singapore dollar, Russian Ruble, and Ukrainian Hryvnia. Previously consumers in these markets were limited to paying for their purchases in other currencies and subject to their banks’ currency conversion fees. And now they will be able to pay comfortably and secure in the knowledge that the final price they see will be the price they pay.

"It comes as no surprise that when you provide consumers with their preferred checkout options, including support for their local currency, you increase conversion rates dramatically. When merchants have the power to sell online to consumers in any one of 30 currencies, they expand their international reach and better meet the needs of their customers," said 2CO Chief Marketing Officer, Chris Daly. "Providing goods and services to consumers on the other side of the planet used to be the privilege of large international corporations. By providing consumers with the ability to buy online, using any one of 30 native currencies, we help level the playing field for small to mid-sized businesses expanding their global reach."
