Option to view store prices in local currency

Ascinct

Hi everyone,

I'm not sure if this is the most appropriate section of the forum to post this in, but I wanted to raise something that’s been on my mind for a while now.

Over the many years I’ve been a member of the DAZ community, I’ve really enjoyed using DAZ Studio and regularly purchase digital assets from the Daz3D store. One thing I’ve noticed however, is that all product prices are shown in USD, regardless of the user's location.

As someone based in Australia, I’d find it incredibly helpful if there were an option to view prices on product pages (or at a minimum during checkout) in my local currency (AUD). It would make it much easier to quickly understand the actual cost of items without needing to manually convert prices or worry about fluctuating exchange rates and potential bank fees.

I know this is something other international storefronts support, and I believe it would improve the shopping experience for many users around the world.

I’m wondering if others in the community have felt the same?

Thanks for reading, and I’d love to hear what others think.

Best regards,

Grant

If Daz charged in local currency then they would probably have to mark prices up to allow for fluctuations and fees; if they just did a conversion using the official rate then you would alomost certainbly end up paying some more depending on how you piad, which daz would not be able to allow for.

The only way to really avoid that is to buy store credit when the exchange rate is good (or a gift card sale makes it good).

Exchange rates fluctuate minute by minute, and as Daz isn't a business where it makes sense for them to deal in other currencies, so they have no real reason to fix their prices in other currencies to take payments in them.
