Because of this restriction, CS-Cart had issues with sending invoices to PayPal in a currency other than the store\u2019s primary currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you have two currencies in your store\u2014the <b>US Dollar<\/b>, which is your store\u2019s primary currency, and the <b>Euro<\/b>, which is the secondary one. And in the PayPal payment settings, you chose the secondary currency\u2014the Euro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a customer added a <b>$100<\/b>-product to the cart, CS-Cart sent a <b>\u20ac100<\/b> invoice to PayPal during the payment. The problem was that CS-Cart didn\u2019t convert $100 into the PayPal currency (Euro) when sending the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vantazo.com\/invoice-template\/photography-invoice-template\" rel=\"follow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">invoice<\/a> to PayPal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-opt-id=652687947  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mldi5dmmdvnt.i.optimole.com\/cb:sOwt.3b410\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.cs-cart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/total_arrows-fin.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In CS-Cart 4.3.5, we\u2019ve implemented the currency conversion when sending invoices to PayPal. Now your CS-Cart store sends correct invoices to PayPal, no matter what currency you set in the PayPal settings, and customers see the true, recalculated price on the PayPal website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-opt-id=832508526  data-opt-src=\"https:\/\/mldi5dmmdvnt.i.optimole.com\/cb:sOwt.3b410\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.cs-cart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/paypal_conversion.png\"  decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20100%%20100%%22%20width%3D%22100%%22%20height%3D%22100%%22%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%22100%%22%20height%3D%22100%%22%20fill%3D%22transparent%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='paypal-in-context-checkout'  id=\"boomdevs_2\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">PayPal In-Context Checkout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, when customers pay with PayPal, they automatically leave your store and go to the PayPal website to complete their payment. It takes time to pay on desktop computers, and it\u2019s inconvenient on mobile devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In CS-Cart 4.3.5, we\u2019ve improved PayPal Express Checkout by adding <a title=\"Detailed info on the PayPal website\" href=\"https:\/\/developer.paypal.com\/docs\/classic\/express-checkout\/in-context\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PayPal In-Context Checkout<\/a>\u2014the PayPal pop-up window opens right in the store. Using this pop-up, customers log in to their PayPal accounts and pay for orders without leaving your store for the PayPal website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PayPal In-Context Checkout makes the payment process quick and seamless, and more convenient on mobile devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-opt-id=1175916800  data-opt-src=\"https:\/\/mldi5dmmdvnt.i.optimole.com\/cb:sOwt.3b410\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/www.cs-cart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/incontex-fin.png\"  decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20100%%20100%%22%20width%3D%22100%%22%20height%3D%22100%%22%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%22100%%22%20height%3D%22100%%22%20fill%3D%22transparent%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='updated-integration-with-dhl'  id=\"boomdevs_3\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Updated Integration with DHL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In earlier versions of CS-Cart, the DHL module used the legacy DHL web service and worked only for companies within the USA.
