Currency Policy

How currency conversion works

All prices are in EUR. If you prefer invoicing in your local currency, we convert at the official ECB reference rate on the day your invoice is issued. The rate, date, and source are printed on your invoice — no hidden margins, no surprises.

The principle

Every price in Petanque Life is expressed in EUR. When you choose to be invoiced in your local currency, we apply the European Central Bank's official reference rate published on the day the invoice is issued. That rate is recorded on the invoice so anyone — you, your accountant, or an auditor — can verify it.

How it works

  • All prices are set in EUR — the canonical currency for every plan and tier.
  • On the day your invoice is issued, we look up the ECB reference rate for your currency from that day's official publication.
  • The rate is locked onto the invoice. Even if the rate moves tomorrow, your invoice amount does not change.
  • Every invoice shows the EUR base price, the ECB rate used, the rate's publication date, and the converted local amount — four pieces of information that make the conversion fully auditable.

Example

Club annual renewal — issued 2026-04-20

Base price (EUR) €99.00
ECB rate (published 2026-04-20) 10.85 SEK/EUR
Invoice amount (SEK) 1 074.15 SEK

The base price is always €99 (governed by your pricing version). The SEK amount depends on the ECB rate that was published on your invoice date. If your renewal fell on a different date, a different rate would have been used — but always the official ECB rate from that same day.

Common questions

Why the rate on the invoice date specifically?
Because we invoice each customer once per year on the anniversary of their subscription. The fairest rate is the one that exists on that specific day — published by an independent authority (ECB). Locking the rate to the invoice date means two customers renewing on different days see different SEK amounts, but both amounts reflect the real EUR-to-SEK relationship on their own renewal day.
Where can I verify the exchange rate?
Every invoice shows the ECB rate and the date it was published. You can verify it directly on the ECB website. We use the same source for every customer — no individual margins or markups.
What if my currency is not supported?
If ECB publishes a reference rate for your currency, we can add it on request. Otherwise, you will be invoiced in EUR. We never use unofficial or third-party exchange rates.
What happens if the rate moves after my invoice is issued?
Nothing. The rate is locked onto your invoice at the moment of issue. Whatever you owe on your invoice stays exactly that amount, regardless of later rate movements. This also means you cannot ask for a retroactive discount if the rate moves in your favour — fairness works both ways.
