I am currently using paypal for all payments and i accept different currencies, however whenever someone pays in $ or euros, by the time paypal converts it I am getting shafted and am far worse off than if they paid in £.

Is there a way round this or an extension so that perhaps they are charged a little more to pay in another currency or something?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks

PayPal charges a fee for "automatic" conversion of currencies.

While your website may be set up to accept payment in various currencies, your PayPal account may not be. For example, if you accept payment by $US, Euro, British Pounds and Japanese Yen, then you need to have these currencies set up in your PayPal as well and do the currency conversion manually through PayPal, rather than have them do it automatically.
