Prices Shown In CAD

Airbnb is showing me prices in Canadian dollars. There is no place for me to change it to American dollars. What can I do?

@Nathaniel125 There is a little globe thing top right of the screen on a PC when you are searching for a property. This allows you to change the currency the listings are displayed in. I have no idea if you can then book in this currency but assume you can.

Thank you.

 

Dear Mike and Nathaniel

I  have changed the currency in my account to JPY (Japanese Yen) and also used the globe thing top right, to change both the currency (and language for good measure) to JPY/Japanese but my  amount is still expressed in CAD as in the bottom left of my screenshot below.

I am an English speaker.

 

I have already set the global preferences in my account to to JPYI have already set the global preferences in my account to to JPY

This is my account settings page. I usually use English but I have set it to Japanese just in case that was causing an issue (e.g. only CAD for English speakers!?) but no joy. The second item says that my account is set to 日本円 which means Japanese yen.

This is quite important because I need to get paid by students for the accommodation but that is difficult if I don't know the yen amount..

 

The above was using Firefox. I tried my Edge browser (on win10) which has no add ins and set the language back to my preferred English but the amount of my trip is still shown in CAD in the bottom left of the top image below.

Maybe it is be cause when I purchased the apartment (or placed my reservation) my system was set to CAD.

 

I managed to find the amount in my credit card payment history, which showed the Yen amount, so it is solved as far as I am concerned.
