Ask HN: Charge in Euro or Dollars for an online service?

7 pointsby jontroalmost 12 years ago
We are running an online service (http:&#x2F;&#x2F;decor-fb.com&#x2F;) and are currently charging our customers in Euro.<p>Users subscribe with a monthly plan and we are using facebook payments.<p>Our customers are from all over the world, our top countries for already paying customers are Brazil and Italy.<p>We are considering changing our plans to charge in dollars instead.<p>I wonder have any of you have experience in charging in both USD and Euro and if the wrong currency this is a deal breaker for potential customers.

Only 45% of Europeans use euros (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Eurozone" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Eurozone</a>), so even for some of your European customers the euro is a foreign currency. If, on top of that, you have a lot of customers from outside Europe, I would say go with USD.<p>Having said that, I don&#x27;t think you charging in EUR would be a dealbreaker.
