Dual Currency with Dual Gateways (USD/CAD)

Hi All,

We are based in Canada with products priced in USD. We would like to get USD into our USD account in Canada, and CAD into our Canadian Account. Only solution found so far on the forums is to have two separate gateways with two merchant accounts. (Currently using Authorize.net with our ZenCart v 1.3.7, with manual conversion from USD to CAD, or CAD directly charged). We can sign up for another Merchant and Gateway, but the problem is how will Zencart handle two payment gateways?

1. We would like ZenCart to handle transaction in a way that if the transaction currency is USD use Gateway1; if transaction is in CAD use Gateway2. Is that possible?
2. We are considering BeanStream, not sure how good or problematic is it going to be. Any recommendations / personal experience would be appreciated.
3. Any coding samples, or guidance would be appreciated (starting from the file names that require changes)
4. We have been informed ZenCart is releasing some kind of patch/add-on for this functionality. Any news on that?
   I did not explain ‘why’ we need this as its going to become another discussion which may not be relevant. The point is we need this functionality and your help :-)

Soon the BeanStream interface module will be re-released with support for both USD and CAD transactions. Keep an eye on the forum; I'll announce it when it's ready to download.

Thank you swguy,

I am assuming the new release will have

1. Option to Setup two BeanStream accounts simultaneously.
2. Option to process USD transactions from BeanStream's USD account, and CAD transactions from BeanStream CAD account at the same time.

If you can please confirm the functionality and the estimated release date?

I appreciate your help.

Yes, this is how it works.

I don't know when it will be released.
