# Charge customers in Colombian Peso

Create prices, discounts, transactions, and subscriptions in Colombian Peso.

---

## What's new?

We added Colombian Peso as [a supported currency](https://developer.paddle.com/concepts/sell/supported-currencies.md) for payments.

- **currency_code** (string): Supported three-letter ISO 4217 currency code

## How it works

Colombia is a fast-growing emerging market economy, with a population of over 50 million people. The primary currency is the Colombian Peso (`COP`).

You can now [create prices](https://developer.paddle.com/build/products/create-products-prices.md) and price overrides in Colombian Peso, letting you charge customers in Colombia in their local currency. Offering [prices in local currencies](https://developer.paddle.com/build/products/offer-localized-pricing.md) builds trust by helping customers understand how much they're being charged, means they're less likely to be charged FX fees, and improves payment acceptance rates.

As a result, `COP` is now a valid allowed value for `currency_code` when working with payment currencies in the Paddle API, including:

* `price.unit_price.currency_code`
* `price.unit_price_overrides.unit_price.currency_code`
* `discount.currency_code`
* `transaction.currency_code`
* `subscription.currency_code`
* `pricing_preview.currency_code`

You may see it in responses from the Paddle API as a payment currency, too.

{% callout type="info" %}
`COP` is not a valid currency code for manually-collected transactions or subscriptions, payouts, chargeback fees, or your balance currency.
{% /callout %}

## Next steps

This change is available in version `1` of the Paddle API.

It's a non-breaking change, meaning it doesn't impact existing integrations.

Check the API documentation to work with prices, subscriptions, and transactions.
