Suppose, you are running a local directory in Bahrain. Your potential customers are people of Bahrain. It wouldn’t be very wise if you provide them with a website that wants them to make payment in USD. There are chances that people get confused. It is very obvious that they will be much more comfortable in transacting with your website if they’re allowed to pay in their national currency(i.e. BHD).
With Directory this is possible with very simple steps. Make your customers comfortable and confident by allowing them to pay in their own currency.
