# How to convert amounts to website visitor currency

In this tutorial we demonstrate how to convert amounts and prices on the fly to each of your website visitor's currency based on their IP address with client side Javascript code :

We will be using the currency conversion API along with the Geolocation API

Our Currency Conversion API endpoint is useful for applications where you just want to convert between two specific currencies and aren't interested in any others.

Using the `conversion` endpoint, you may request the IpForensics API to perform a Single currency conversion on your behalf. e.g converting `$500 Dollars to Naira`

You'll need to choose your base currency code, the target currency and the amount you'd like to get the exchange rate for. 

```javascript
var toCurrency = "USD" //currency to exchange to
var productAmount = 500; //product amount


// Getting the currency symbol from the user's IP
$.get("https://ipforensics.net/api/v1/origin?apikey=APIKEY", function (response) {
    //this will return the currency sysmbol e.g NG
    var fromCurency = response.meta_data.currency.symbol;
        
    //make another request to 
    $.get(`https://ipforensics.net/api/v1/currency/convert?apikey=YOUR-API-KEY&from=${fromCurency}&to=${toCurrency}&amount=${productAmount}`, function (response) {
    
        //shows the exchage rate
        console.log(response.meta_data.exchange_rate)
    
    }, "jsonp");
}, "jsonp");
```

**You don't need to send the user IP Address, our system will automatically detect users IP address and return required data as response to your application.**
