Understanding display currency vs. payment method currency

When you link a payment method to Sling Money, you’ll be asked to select the currency of that account, which will be set as the payment method currency.

When you send someone money, you can choose a display currency, which will be shown in the transaction feed for both yourself and your recipient. However, Sling Money will always charge your payment method in the payment method's currency, even if the display currency for the transaction is different.

You can change the currency of a payment method at any time in your settings, if you'd like to be charged in a different currency.

✏️ Example

If your payment method currency is set to US dollars, but you choose euros as your display currency, you will still be charged in US dollars, even though you recipient will see that they received euros.
