Extra-life.org Now Accepting Canadian Currency
Yep. You read that right. Participants now fundraising for Children’s Miracle Network hospitals and foundations in Canada can now receive donations in the Canadian currency.
How does it work?
By default, any donor who donates via credit card on www.extra-life.org and has a Canadian billing address will automatically be charged in CAD. All other transactions will be processed in USD.
What does this mean for you?
- It means that any donations, platinum upgrades or registration fees Canadian registrants pay will be processed in CAD (assuming you’re using a credit card that is registered with a billing address in Canada).
- It also means that any friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, strangers on the train, etc. who live in Canada and support fundraising efforts will also be charged in CAD.
To put it simply, there’s no more need to worry about those tricky conversion rates!
This upgrade to the website will make it easier for Canadian Extra Lifers to play games, heal kids. The fundraising is turn-key, when and how you play is up to you, and children’s hospitals win. Every time!
We’ve posted more information about this upgrade at this link. Stay tuned for more improvements to the participant and donor experience coming soon.
