Hey guys! Is it possible to have the Events calendar + Event tickets using a currency that is not part of the initial Currency code list in Payments settings? Without using Woocomerce? If yes – how?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @stanilov,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Have you tried setting up with Tickets Commerce and using its Currency Code option? This option doesn’t need WooCommerce, but you need to set up Tickets Commerce.

Follow this article on how to Set up Tickets Commerce:
https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/tickets-commerce/

See the article here to learn more with the heading Payments:
https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/settings-overview-event-tickets-and-event-tickets-plus/

Let me know if this helps or if you do have more questions.

Best,
Abz

Hi @abzlevelup,

Admiriation for the fast response!

I am trying to use Ticket Commerce, but the option Currеncy code doesn’t include the currency I want the tickets to be processed… So this is my concern for now.

Hi @stanilov,

No worries, I’d be glad to help you out.

Apologies for the confusion here. Could you provide me which Currency are you trying to use? Moreover, could you also provide me a screenshot on what you see on your end. Just to give me more context here.

I’m curious which currency we have not covered. I would definitely ask the team as well, I’d look forward to your response.

Best,
Abz

Hi @stanilov,

Talking with our developers I can see that you can add a custom PHP snippet to add BGN on that currency list. But before that, please note that Bulgarian LEV (BGN) currency is not supported by Paypal, so if you want to use Paypal even using the custom snippet you’ll not be able to make Paypal work with that currency.

If you’re using Stripe, the snippet should work properly. But, as any customization, we recommend using it first on a testing environment and checking if it’ll work with Stripe properly.

Here’s the custom snippet adding BGN in your currency list. You can add it on your theme’s function PHP file or using Code Snippets plugin.
```
add_filter( 'tec_tickets_commerce_default_currency_map', function( $currencies ) {

	$currencies['BGN'] = [
		'name'                  => __( 'Bulgarian Lev (BGN)', 'event-tickets' ),
		'symbol'                => 'лв',
		'thousands_sep'         => ',',
		'decimal_point'         => '.',
		'decimal_precision'     => 2,
		'stripe_minimum_charge' => 0.50,
	];

	return $currencies;
} );
```
