I've read http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2740048 and it made me think about my own product that I'm going to launch within the next 2 weeks.<p>A little background info: As you might have guessed I'm from Switzerland and prefer CHF as currency. I'm going to sell a java swing library so it is a one time purchase unlike the SAAS product in the linked poll.<p>Thanks for the inputs!
If it's compelling enough, it won't matter.<p>But I see no point in putting up extra barriers for your potential-might-be-interested customers. The previous thread did a fine job explaining that having to do currency conversions will put many people off. An <i>uncommon</i> currency for most of the world will just make it worse.<p>As a European, I have an approximate idea how much GBP and USD are worth. I have no clue about CHF.<p>I'm not sure you realize this, but it's possible to travel to Switzerland and never pay anything in CHF. Almost all shops accept EUR. Selling a product online and not doing so is weird at the very least.
