Withdraw in a different currency

Hi,

Your help would be appreciated with my issue:
Different currencies are used to pay on my website (gw2rewards.com), and I would like to withdraw currencies without PayPal converting (not going to hide, PayPal exchange rate is 10-15% different compared to market rate).
Is there a way to withdraw money to my bank account in a different currency than the one automatically setup?
I tried to change my main currency, but it did not change anything while withdrawing.

Any idea how to "optimize" this?
Thank you.

Withdrawals to bank accounts is always in local currency.

As you haven't said your country or added it to your forum profile can't advise further.

Hi @kernowlass 

Thank you for your reply.
My PayPal Pro is for https://gw2rewards.com, I am from France, and the bank linked is a Revolut account, so it's in Europe but Revolut is great for currency exchange, so if I could withdraw in USD that would be perfect.
Otherwise, if I absolutely "need" a different bank account, my Vivid Money bank provides different IBAN depending on the currency. Would that work?

Anyway, let me know if you think of any solution to by-pass the PayPal exchange rates on this.
Thanks!
