How to add currencies in ApprovalMax Pay Wallets

ApprovalMax Pay Wallets let your Organisation hold and pay in multiple currencies. Each new currency you add creates a dedicated Wallet that works like a virtual local bank account.

Before you start:

  • Your Organisation must already have a funded base Wallet (GBP for UK Organisations or USD for US Organisations).

  • Only the Wallet Owner or Wallet Manager can add new currencies.

This is how you add a new currency:

  • Under the Wallets tab, click on the Three-dot icon and select "Add currency".

  • A list of supported currencies will appear.

  • Select one or more currencies you want to add and click on ADD.

  • A confirmation screen will appear and show the new currencies that will be added. ApprovalMax will also create corresponding bank accounts in Xero for these currencies. Click on CREATE to finalise.

  • Once confirmed, your new currencies will appear under the Wallets tab. The next step is to convert funds into these currencies so you can start making payments.

Adding currency from a Batch Payment

You can also add a new currency Wallet while creating a Batch Payment, if the Batch includes a Bill in a currency your Organisation doesn't yet have a Wallet for.

  • If your Organisation has a currency enabled in Xero or QuickBooks Online but no matching ApprovalMax Wallet yet, you'll see this message when creating a Batch Payment.

  • Click Add new currency.

  • The pop-up opens with the Bill's currency already selected. Click Add to create the new Wallet.

  • Click Create to complete the process.
