Pay recipients in their local currency​

You can pay recipients in any supported currency, even if your PayPal account does not hold a balance in that currency. To do this:

  1. Create input files – one file for each payout currency.

Note: An input file can payout only in one currency type. For local currency payouts, group recipients based on currency type and create multiple files.

  1. Upload the input files one by one. PayPal reviews the file and if valid, displays the Review your payment details page. The page contains the currency conversion fees and other currency exchange details, that PayPal calculates automatically.
  2. Review and select Send Payout.

Note: For more information about currency conversion, country exclusions, and restrictions, see Currency conversion.

Set up payout approval flow​

  1. Log in to your PayPal business account.
  2. Go to Account Settings > Account Access > Manage Users and select Update.
  3. In the Users page, select Manage Approvals.
  4. In the Approvals page, select Get Started for Send payouts.
  5. In the pop-up window, choose the users who can approve payout requests and select Done.
  6. Select Yes, Turn On Approvals.
  7. Select Close. The Send Payout approvers page displays the users who can approve payout requests.

Note: The user who creates a payout cannot approve the same payout.
