Currency settings in Brushfire are controlled at the organization level (dashboard level), not per individual event. This means all events within a single dashboard will display prices in the same currency.
Payment Gateways and Multiple Dashboards
Each dashboard typically requires its own payment gateway setup. This separation is necessary because:
- Different countries often require different payment processors
- Financial reporting needs to be separated by currency
- Payout processing varies by region
Multiple Countries, Multiple Currencies
If you host events in multiple countries that use different currencies, you have two options:
Option 1: Multiple Dashboards (Recommended)
Set up separate dashboards for each country/currency. For example:
- "Your Organization Name US" (USD)
- "Your Organization Name UK" (GBP)
- "Your Organization Name Canada" (CAD)
Benefits:
- Clean currency separation
- Accurate reporting per region
- Separate payment gateway management
How to set up: Contact our support team to create additional dashboards for your organization.
Option 2: Same Currency Symbol Countries (Limited Use Case)
If you use Stripe and operate in countries that share the same currency symbol (AU, CA, NZ, SG, US all use $), you can manage multiple currencies from one dashboard.
Important caveat: While this technically works, your reports will show mixed currencies under the same symbol, which can be confusing for financial tracking.
Getting Started
Again, to set up multiple dashboards for different currencies, please contact our support team. Check out this article to see which currencies are supported in Brushfire. We'll help you create appropriately named dashboards and guide you through the setup process for the payment gateway.
