OK then, Look at my join pages, currency flags are there.
Look at any CCBill site.
http://www.ccbillsponsors.com/
The currency flags are all there.
EVERY CCBILL SITE IN EXISTANCE SHOWS THE CURRENCY FLAGS AND CAN BILL IN THOSE CURRENCIES WHETHER REGIONAL BILLING IS ACTIVATED OR NOT!
Regional billing activated will lock in that customer at their local currency that you have set in regional billing. You can choose to use CCbills recommended settings or use your own.
Without regional billing activated the customer is locked in at the USD amount, and his card may be billed more or less in his currency depending on the exchange rate.
ie: This disclaimer off my ccbill join page.
Any subsequent (future) charges will be billed in the above selected currency, and are subject to adjustment (adjustments are based on the selected currency value = to US Dollars), at the time of each subsequent charge.
This locks you in so you will always get equal to what your membership is in USD.
Regional Billing works the exact opposite.
Way over half my income is Rebills.
Almost 50% of those are non USA.
5% of those have been with me for years and years.
Also I have members cancel and join back every few months over and over again for years and years.
Why do I want to risk fucking that up?
Also it's not only my decision, I have affiliates, it's mostly all their traffic. I am not only making decisions for me but for them also.
I have seen no solid proof that it works.
I see a bunch of bullshit "yah we activated it yesterday and are happy so far comments"
Please, gimme a break.
I will sit here on the sidelines and watch you guys test.
Answer me this: If regional billing is so good and perfect, why do you have to check the yes box to enable it.
If it was so good and perfect and 100% foolproof, why wouldn't ccbill and epoch and the rest of them that offer it just make it A DEFAULT setting?
Answer me that.
