If you want to pay your supplier in their preferred currency or want to be able to transfer your funds to your bank account in one transfer instead of several, you can now convert the currency within your WeTravel wallets.
How To Convert Currencies Within WeTravel
On your Payments Tab, you will see the button “Convert” next to “Transfer”:
After clicking on the button, you will be redirected to the conversion page.
Here, you can select the amount you want to convert, the currency you want to convert from, and the currency you want to convert into and see real-time conversion rates.
You can also enter the converted amount in your "to" currency and we will automatically calculate how much you need in the "from" currency to make this conversion.
The minimum amount you can convert in your WeTravel account is 20 USD/EUR/GBP/CAD/AUD/NZD/CHF/DKK/NOK/SEK/PLN/HKD/MXN
After you confirm the conversion, the system will load the conversion, and once successful, you will be shown the following screen:
After clicking confirm, the system will initiate the conversion, and within seconds, you will see the confirmation screen.
You can now use your funds in the new currency to do a payout to your own bank account, initiate a new supplier transfer, or refund customers in this currency.

Is there a limit to the amount I can convert?
We do not currently have a limit for conversion. However, you can only convert what you have available as your balance.
What if I need to make a refund, but I have already converted my funds to a different currency?
You will have to convert the balance back to the original currency. This may result in a slightly different conversion rate due to fluctuations in the exchange rate.
