PayPal converting Japanese Yen to American currency for non business accounts?

[MrJaySin]

I wanted to know this for sure because im having doubts, but if I leave japanese currency in my paypal account does it convert to USD by itself if left alone for a period of time? I refuse to switch to a business account and have it done immediately, because of sensitive information id rather not have on my paypal, which is why Im curious if the site converts it for regular accounts but at a much slower process? Im perfectly fine with that, I just wanted outside confirmation because I dont really know much when it comes to using paypal.

Hello @MrJaySin,

That's a great question. You can send money, receive money, and withdraw money in multiple currencies. 

You can add a new currency to your account, convert from one currency to another, choose your primary currency and more on the Wallet page.

Here's how to manage multiple currencies:

1. Click Wallet at the top of the page.
2. Locate the available currency and click the menu icon to the right of the currency.
3. The options to "Make Primary", "Convert Currency", and "Close Currency" will generate.

I hope this helps. Thanks!
