damn
I'm not surprised though
Even though we do have https://www.paypal.com/za/ it's pretty useless to South Africans \

The reason why this is not supported is supposedly something to do with South African exchange controls, although I personally think it's totally ridicilous that Paypal has already been in South Africa for 3 years and this problem still exists.
 
The bank that partnered with Paypal issued a comprehensive FAQ with regards to the Paypal service in South Africa:
 
"4. Why can I only Top Up with US dollars? PayPal offers the ability to send funds and make payments in many currencies.  At this stage South African Rand (ZAR) is not a PayPal currency so as an interim solution the FNB ‘Top Up’ service with PayPal will only facilitate the conversion of the funds from South African rand into US dollars.  The US Dollars in your PayPal account can used to make purchases in any PayPal currency, with PayPal merchants worldwide."
 
Not sure why they cant fix this issue - there are many local equivalents such as www.payfast.co.za or www.paygenius.co.za
Anyway not your problem.


If I can just get the currency to display correctly it would be a good start.

That'll be brilliant thanks!
The display sign is 'R'

None of the currencies listed is suitable for me - is there away to use a custom currency?
Thanks

I'm currently using the Ad Management Mod and it works pretty cool for displaying HTML content between posts in some boards.
My needs are an expansion of what this mod offers at the moment:
- Time based ads between posts (still using HTML as the current Mod does)
- Replace current small gif style banners which is defined in the header with custom placeholders(?) to manage time based placement of similair (banners style) images

Does Ad Seller Pro work without PayPal?
Being in South Africa poses challenges using PayPalk as a means to accept payment from local advertisers and up till now the process has been for the advertiser to be supplied an invoice after which he does an EFT. We can keep doing that but I would still like the functionality of the Ad Seller system even without the PayPal integration.
