Power store 4 does not support other currencies.

The Sys Specs state PS4 isn't supported:

Q: Does PowerStore 4 work with non-US currencies?

A: PowerStore is not configured to support stores outside of the United States. Custom changes to the currency symbols that are displayed throughout the store will need to be made if you wish to use this system in another country.

These changes are not supported by WebAssist staff and should only be performed by someone familiar with code and comfortable with making these modifications.


Hopefully, PS5 will allow this.

Hi Esms,

From what I can see, there is no mention of this in the Sytem Requirements, overview or feature list. What you have shown is an extract from the FAQ. which, in my experience, is what you refer to when you are looking for an answer to a particular problem after the fact (of purchase). As I would expect multiple currencies to be an integral and supported part of any eCommerce solution - both locically and as a matter of courtesy to international customers, - its ommission confounds me.

I find it particularly odd - given that the feature has been both requested and the subject of discussion in the past - that the engineers have again decided not to implement it. There can be little doubt that it must have been mooted in any planning meeting, and a decision made that they just couldn't be arsed to see it through on behalf of the non-dollar customer.

My previous point was that as International customers support WebAssist, it would be nice if WebAssist were to reciprocate by considering and supporting them.

Hi Neilo,

Yes - you're correct - it was in actual fact from FAQ.

In another thread, I asked how long PS5 would be in the making and Ray B replied 12 - 18 months.

So, not for some considerable time then !!

Cheers esms,

Seems like a ridiculously long wait for fundamental functionality.

From the Overview:

  An Online Store Ready to Go


PowerStore is a complete pre-built eCommerce website. In other words, we've built the entire store for you allowing anyone to set up and start an eCommerce website without coding or database experience. Simply upload to your server and run the Installation Wizard - you'll be selling online in no time at all.  


To bury the currency limitation in the FAQ is an odd decision.


I didn't have too much trouble making the conversion to GBP (here) but it is a bit time consuming to make the alterations.



If anyone wants a PDF of the lines that need changing, then mail me and I will send it.

We are currently working on an update to power store 4 that will support other currencies.


right now, we do not have that built is, but the next power store release will offer that.

I cannot say when it will be available, to many things could change to effect that date, it should be fairly soon, but dont hold me to that.
