TicketSpice provides the ability to process transactions in currencies other than USD. This is often needed for events taking place outside of the USA. Only certain payment processors allow for international currencies.

NOTE: Each TicketSpice page can be set to one currency. If you have a need to process in multiple currencies, you'll simply want to copy your page and publish each one to the desired currency.
