    Hi

    Can you please add the Currency for South African Rand (R) to the currency options.

    Thanks

    Is the South African Rand supported by PayPal's API? I ask because according to PayPal's documentation, it is not. Here are the currencies we support, which is based on PayPal's supported currencies:

    Unfortunately it is not currently supported by paypal.

    If there are plans to expand the payment gateways, then it would help to have the South African rand included in future.

    We do plan on offering additional gateways in the future. There is a hook that allows you to add your own currency if you want to use one that isn't supported out of the box. The gform_currencies hook. You can find documentation for it here:

    I'm also from South African and even though we do not use Paypal and ZAR as currency, using South African Rand as a currency allows us to design forms to be emailed using the correct currency (I have not tested the order form fields yet, but had the in mind for a clients' website).

    I'll also have a look at the hooks and see if I can get that implemented, thanks for the link.
