# Handling sales in multiple currencies

If you're selling products or services worldwide, you might use multiple currencies on your e-commerce store. In such case, you should enable multi-currency handling and create API calls that pass the transaction currency to Partnero.

***

### How it works

When multi-currency handling is  **enabled** for your program, Partnero API will check for *amount\_units* information with every transaction API call.

* If the *amount\_units* does not match the default program currency, we will use a trusted 3rd-party service to convert the transaction value to the default program currency at the time of purchase.
* If the *amount\_units* is not provided, the default program currency will be used.
* If the multi-currency handling **is not enabled**, *amount\_units* will be ignored.

Please see our [API Documentation](https://developers.partnero.com/reference/transactions.html) for detailed instructions.

#### To enable multi-currency handling:

1. In your affiliate program, go to **Settings** under **Program**.
2. Scroll down to **Commission** and toggle to Enable the multi-currency conversion for the program: <img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/CUmAE4DHfWqM1kwF/images/articles/handling-sales-in-multiple-currencies/620a0d0d.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=CUmAE4DHfWqM1kwF&q=85&s=3c3cfd5c23094c341dcaceb9a7e54623" alt="" width="2870" height="1548" data-path="images/articles/handling-sales-in-multiple-currencies/620a0d0d.webp" />
