Browser

  • Open the browser of your choice, go to Etsy.com and log in
  • Next, click on your profile photo or click on the option “You” in the top-right corner
  • Now click on Account Settings

  • Click on the Preferences tab

  • Find the Currency section
  • You will see that British pound is set as a default one and you will also notice the available currencies
  • Select the one you want

  • Once you select the currency you prefer, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, and click on Update Preferences

When you do this, the prices will be shown in the currency you have selected.
