My current predicament is that I want to reduce the fees my customers face when they buy on my online store. The problem is that my store only supports having checkout in one currency at a time. My current currency is GBP since I am based in the UK. Now, I want to allow customers to pay in USD and EUR as well. I have it set up on Stripe that I am able to recieve EUR and USD, but the online store still only makes a checkout pay specifically in GBP, meaning customers will be paying a 3.75% conversion fee if they don't pay in GBP directly. I want to develop a custom checkout that talks to my store backend and accepts EUR, USD and GBP and tells the store-backend that the payment has been successful. Ideally the EUR and USD price would just be the current rate for USD/GBP or EUR/GBP.
I'm wondering if this is a practical thing to do and if there are guides on how I might do this. I haven't actually used Stripe's developer platform much aside from pasting my API key into my store-backend. I do have lots of experience in other fields of development though, so I'm sure I have enough to pull this off, as long as it's the right thing to do.
