# Currency Settings

The global **Currency** settings allow you to configure which currency all your donations will be received and reported in; as well as the formatting of the currency values.

> **Note:** Interested in more advanced, multi-currency options? You’ll want to read more about the [Currency Switcher](https://givewp.com/addons/currency-switcher/) add-on.

You can find your global GiveWP currency settings by navigating to **GiveWP > Settings > General (tab) > Currency (sub-menu)**.

## ![Give Settings -- General Tab Currency Section](https://docs.nexcess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Screen-Shot-2019-08-21-at-1.25.30-PM.png)

**Currency**: Select your currency from the dropdown. Note that some payment gateways have currency restrictions, and changing the currency here can result in failed transactions.

## Settings for Option-Based Forms

These settings are visible when you have the **Option-Based Form Editor** setting enabled in the [Advanced settings](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/give/advanced/).

**Auto-format server currency amounts**: When enabled, amounts are automatically formatted based on the selected currency. This option requires an extension in your site’s PHP installation. You can read more details about that [here](https://docs.givewp.com/currency-format).

**Currency Position**: Depending on your currency and culture, there are different conventions for where the currency symbol goes. Use this dropdown to set your preference throughout the plugin.

**Thousands Separator**: For some currencies, it is conventional to use a different separator for thousands.

**Decimal Separator**: For some currencies, it is conventional to use a different separator for decimals. Use this field to specify the decimal separator for your currency.

**Number of Decimals:** This controls how many decimal places occur after your main currency amount. For example, the U.S. dollar supports 2 decimals in order to count cents. Note that the [Fee Recovery Add-on](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/give/fee-recovery/) forces 2 decimal places to be added because of how percentage-based fees add decimals to amounts.
