Tip

Two currencies are in use today: US dollars and Zimbabwe dollars. Amount limits and payment method codes are keyed on the currency code you send, and a currency with no active payment method is rejected with a 403.

Caution

Zimbabwe dollars are addressed by two currency codes — ZiG for EcoCash and PayGo, ZWG for Zimswitch and Omari. Both are chargeable, but Get Active Currencies lists only ZiG, so take the code from the method you are charging — see Payment method codes.
