# Currency (amount) selector

 * Hi,
 * I am trying to set up a form where the user can select a membership level they
   want to pay for and then pay using Paypal.
 * I see the currency field doesn’t allow me to use a Select, so I can let the user
   simply select 1 out of 3 options or levels, each one with a different price so
   it can later be paid using Paypal.
 * If I use a select field, I can’t use that for Paypal to read the amount to be
   charged,
 * How can I resolve this?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * OK, I was able to figure this out. Here is what I did, in case anyone has the
   same issue at some point:
 * I just created a Radio button control, with all my Membership Levels, each option
   has a numeric value, which is the cost. I marked this control in the options 
   to be able to participate in calculations.
 * Then, instead of having a “Currency” field, I replaced it by a “Calculation” 
   one, which I also marked as a hidden field. In the calculation section, I simply
   used the variable name of the Radio button as the value (nothing else).
 * This way, whatever is selected in the radio button, will have a value which will
   be used as a calculation for the calculation field.
 * Then in the Paypal section, you can use the Custom value and link it to the “
   Calculation” field (it accepts either “Calculation” field or “Currency”).
 * That’s it!

 * Hi [@heldmar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heldmar/),
 * You’ll need to use Select, Radio or Checkbox in such instances as you have done.
   Glad to hear you have managed to resolve it.
