Folks with the Canadian dollar moving towards par with the Greenback , perhaps it is time to take a page out of the marketing handbook of the hotel industry.

So are you saying that if someone charges $19.95USD for a membership, they should charge Canadians $19.95CAD instead of Canadians paying in the neighborhood of $24.50?

How would that work with the processors? Processors most often process in USD, especially online. They would have to convert and process in CAD for specified transactions.

The issue is actually how to go global.
The industry needs processing options that can deal with the fact that our consumers do not all price things in USD.
Europe has become simpler with the Euro, but 30 million plus Canucks still have an independant currency.
