Canadian dollars and adds fees such as a fair chunk of change to the
exchange rate. I have a European bank account that I can pay directly
from and that's much cheaper for me.<br>
<br>
Basically it's the same for anyone paying by PAYPAL unless they pay
paypal in sterling.<br>

If we could get away from Paypal I'd be more
than happy.<br>
<br>
When paying European invoices I just put the reference number on the
payment that goes directly to their bank. That way I don't pay an
inflated exchange rate to paypal.<br>
<br>
I note that donations are accepted by bank transfers.
