Why are prices shown in my currency?
By Nimanto 2 min read
In short
Nimanto detects your country and shows every price in its currency (24 currencies, US dollars everywhere else). The footer's region control changes the currency, but another currency always shows the standard price converted. A local discount is checked against the country of the card that pays it, and an invitation is priced for where its venue is when that country pays more.
The price you see is the price you pay, in the money you use. Nimanto detects where you are and shows every price in your country's currency.
The currencies
US dollars, Indian rupees, pounds sterling, Canadian and Australian dollars, euros (every euro country), New Zealand and Singapore dollars, UAE dirhams, Saudi riyals, Swiss francs, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish kronor, Polish złoty, Czech koruna, Mexican pesos, Brazilian reais, South African rand, Hong Kong dollars, Malaysian ringgit, Philippine pesos, Thai baht and Israeli shekels. Everywhere else pays in US dollars.
Every price starts as a US-dollar amount and becomes a round shop price in your currency (₹999, £11.99, 12,99 €). The pricing page, the catalogue tiles, every design page and the pay dialog agree with each other and with the checkout.
Changing the currency
The globe at the bottom of every page shows the country we detected and the currency you see, for example "France · Euro · € EUR". Open it to pick another currency. Your own country's currency shows your local prices; any other currency shows the standard price converted at the day's exchange rate, and a line under the control says so. Pick your own currency again to go back. Prices refresh at once.
Where your price comes from
- Where you are. Your local price follows the country we detect from your connection (or your phone's region in the app), not the currency you pick.
- The card you pay with. A price below the standard one is checked against the country your card was issued in. If the card is from a country that pays more, nothing is charged: the hold on your card is released and you're shown why. Pay again to see the price for your card. An Indian rupee payment from a card issued outside India is refunded in full.
- Where your event is. An invitation is never priced below the level of the country its venue is in. A venue in a country that pays more shows that country's price in your currency, and the payment says "priced for … where your event is". A venue never lowers a price.
Good to know
- A plan keeps its currency. A subscription stays in the currency it started in for its whole life, through upgrades, downgrades and renewals, even if you move or change the region later.
- One payment, one currency. Everything in a checkout is charged in the same currency, and you're offered the payment methods that work in it.
- Rupee purchases of designs go through Razorpay and are shown with any tax included; rupee plans bill through Stripe. See Checkout and payment methods.
- In the mobile app, a store purchase is charged in your store's currency at the nearest store price. See Paying in the mobile app.
- Sales tax, where it applies, is added on top of the price shown. See Sales tax.
