I have set-up everything I need to test my app in the Paypal Sandbox.
However, I was having this issue: My app was submitting transactions in EUR, but, apparently, the sandbox needed USD, otherwise the transaction would not complete. I changed it to USD and everything worked fine.
So, now I need to change my sandbox settings to accept EUR, but I cannot find any place to do this.
How can I set my sandbox account so it can accept EUR as the default and convert USD to EUR?
Select the desired currency in the Currency drop-down menu. Click to highlight your account's designated currency. Once currency for the correct country appears, continue confirming the transaction. PayPal deducts the funds from your account in this currency.
Click the settings icon at the top of your PayPal account page and then click Account Settings. From the left menu, click Payment preferences. Click the Update link for the Block Payments item. Update your settings and they save automatically.
The default currency is decided by the country you choose when you create the account. To automatically accepet transactions that are not in your default currency you can choose "Allow payments sent to me in a currency I do not hold:" from here
Create a new paypal sandbox account from here
Select country from here..
Note: The default currency is decided by the country you choose when you create the account. And the default paypal sandbox Accounts consist the default/local currency..Best option is to create new sandbox account.
