Hi, how are you currently integrated with Stripe?
hidden yacht
Got it, getting the relevant documents now.
You can set the currency options here for a Price for different currencies: https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/create#create_price-currency_options. Here is some additional information on this, https://stripe.com/docs/payments/checkout/present-local-currencies#create-multi-currency-prices
Checkout automatically localizes prices if you’re using multi-currency Prices so with your use case, it would show EUR as it's default currency.

hmm alright. So if i create a product in the dahboard with currency EUR. Is it right that, that will only be shown as EUR in the checkout no matter where the user is, right? As thats the goal
hidden yacht
That is correct.
wispy salmon
Perfect!
is it possible to change a price at anytime?
as i know you cant change the VAT settings for a product once someone has bought it
but what about the price?
for one times payments

You're asking you if you can change the price on a given price object, https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices ? If so, no. You'd create a new price on that product. If not, can you add further details?
wispy salmon
I mean from the dashboard
If i have a product in the dashboard, is it possible to change the price of the product after someone has bought it?
Oh the same thing applies there..
So if i create a new price, what does that even mean? does it make a new product ID?
hidden yacht
Nope, one product can have multiple prices.
wispy salmon
yeah, so the price ID changes, got it.
Cant seem to delete the old price tho🤔 so if i use the api to select a price for each product, how in the world am i suppose to know which one to choose in the code haha?
hidden yacht
You keep track of this on your end. You cannot delete a price, instead, you'd deactivate the price: https://stripe.com/docs/api/prices/update#update_price-active so it cannot be used for new purchases.
wispy salmon
got it. Last question: possible to have a localised product description?
hidden yacht
You'd control that portion when you create the product: https://stripe.com/docs/api/products/create#create_product-description
