Can you have an account that is capable of receiving payments in different currencies without converting using paypal's own abysmal conversion rate?

Hello @aaumpuwbntfcm 

 

Thank you for joining the PayPal Help Community!

 

I understand your concern about the currency conversion charges applied for receiving payments to your PayPal account. PayPal currency conversion rates remain competitive with conversion rates used by banks. Currency conversion applies when you receive money in a different currencies other than your local currency. You cannot avoid the conversion charges for receiving payments in different currencies. Here's the article with the information on how to manage currencies in your PayPal account.

PayPal is **bleep** nowadays, they will steal money from you with use of conversion. Many sellers should move to Google Pay, that is still big problem that many sellers use this useless PayPal.
