Abstract
A method and apparatus for facilitating payment transactions in multiple currencies between participants is provided. In one embodiment, an option is provided to a user to select a currency in which to make a payment. An indication of the selected currency in which to make the payment is received. A determination is made as to whether the selected currency is a primary currency of an account of the user. Based on the selected currency being different from the primary currency of the account of the user, the payment is converted to the selected currency.
