Hi friends,

I am looking to build a open cart shopping website but i was wondering that if there is a way to show to customers prices in Both the Canadian $$ and US $$ and if the customer is in Canada charge him/her CAD $$ FOR product, taxes and shipping and if the customer is in US charge them US$ product and shipping. Basically the Currency conversion must be done Live and then accurate prices displayed.

Please advice with details, best plugin, extensions or any specific way to do this.

Thanks in Advance

You don't need extension for this . This is in the core files. You have to add these two currencies, set one of them as default and all prices will be converted for the customer automatically. When the order is placed the price is calculated in the customer chosen currency. If you have paypal or something similar as payment method you can set the accepted currencies, so the client choice doesn't meter.
The taxes are set by geozones and applyed automatically.
Real-life Example: I'm in Canada but sometimes want to pay with USD as well :)
