What this guide covers
Choosing the account currency
Why you need a unified currency for your account:
To see how much you owe in a single amount
To estimate your spends for the upcoming payment
To easily compare the program costs month to month - regardless of which currencies you use to track the conversion records.
You can choose your account currency in Settings → Account → General, in the Default account currency field.
Only the account holder and team members with the Manage account settings permission can see and change this field. Other team members don't see this page.
Your account currency is USD by default. You can switch it to EUR yourself, once. After that, the field shows your current currency and can't be edited. If you need to change the currency again, contact us at support@tapfiliate.com.
After the switch, Tapfiliate converts the totals of the commissions already recorded into the new currency. While this is running, the Reports page shows its progress and the All (EUR) view isn't available yet – you can still view your data in its original currencies.
Note that this affects your reporting views only. It doesn't change the currency of your programs, commissions or payouts – those follow the program currency, which you set yourself in Programs, under General Settings.
Viewing the earnings: all in one currency
You can check how much you owe in commissions via the different reporting slices. Access your Reports page > General overview:
💡 You can also apply these currency options and switch between them when exploring the other Reports sections (Affiliate, Date, OS, etc.).
How it works:
When you need the detailed data on the conversions/commissions in a specific currency (or in a currency it was initially tracked in), you can switch to the chosen currency view
When you want to see the summary of earnings converted into your chosen account currency (EUR or USD), you should apply the All (USD)/All (EUR) view.
The difference between the Program Currency and the Account Currency
You might wonder now - why would you need to choose an account currency if you have already set one on the program level?
✔️ The program currency is assigned to your conversions and commissions tracked, in case you haven't specified an alternate currency in the tracking data.
✔️ The account currency allows for viewing the reporting data converted into a single currency, regardless of the currency used when tracking.
