Hi Dave,
I’ve downloaded the free version and works well but I’ve decided to upgrade to the pro version. Before I do that, I have a few questions if you don’t mind?
In the free version, I can seem to see a price dropdown but only the dotted option. This doesn’t quite work because it overrules my promotional pricing in the store making it hard to understand which is the standard price and which is the promotional price (happy to send you a screenshot)
Do you offer an extension that automatically rounds prices to make them customer-friendly? For example, $1.94 becomes $1.99.
If you could help answer the two question above, I will go ahead and purchase the pro version.

Thank you for your help with developing this new feature.
For others, there is now a ’round prices’ option in the Multicurrencyalizer config area. When you enable price rounding, the following happens:
Converted price < 20 => Round up to nearest unit. e.g. 14.28 becomes 15.
Converted price < 500 => Round up to nearest five unit e.g. 243.17 becomes 245
Higher than 500 => Round up to nearest 10 e.g. 814 becomes 820
Rounding up was chosen so customers are not surprised when the payment processor converts your store currency and shows their price.
The two big advantages to this price rounding system are:
1) Your prices look better in all currencies
2) Your prices tend to stay static in converted currencies – e.g. they don’t change from 9.17 to 9.23 from one day to the next due to currency fluctuations. Instead, in this case they’ll show as 10.
