What currency is used for global project payments?
Payments for global projects are processed in Korean Won (KRW).
On the international supporter screen, the local currency is displayed together to help supporters understand the payment.
The payment screen for global supporters shows both the Korean Won (KRW) amount and the converted amount in the supporter's local currency.
- For example, for US supporters, both KRW and USD are displayed on the payment screen.
- This reference information is provided to help supporters intuitively understand the actual payment amount.
- The currency conversion is automatically calculated based on the exchange rate of the day, and the actual payment currency is always processed in Korean Won (KRW).
The actual payment amount may vary depending on the exchange rate and transaction fees.
- At the time of payment, the exchange rate of the supporter's card issuer and international transaction fees are applied, so there may be a difference between the displayed foreign currency amount and the actual amount charged to the supporter's card.
- Therefore, it is important to notify supporters in advance of this information.
- Example message: "Payments for international supporters are processed in Korean Won. The amount charged may vary depending on the exchange rate and your card issuer's policies. The foreign currency displayed on the payment screen is for reference only; actual payment is processed in Korean Won."
