    If you would like to pass a value to your payment field, it would need to be passed from a calculation field:

    Once your value is in a calculation field, you can pass your text box field value to the calculation field, you can use that value in your payment field:

    I am not trying to pass a calculation of the amount owing… I am trying to pass the currency to be charged.
    All I see in the Stripe wizard is a drop down to select a currency, no option to get that from my text/calculation field.

    The currency to be charge is not variable.  It can only be set in the payment field to a single currency.

    So when I asked this early today, the answer should have been, "Not possible"....

    To collect different currencies, yes it is possible.  Passing those currencies to a payment field is not.  For multiple currencies, it would require multiple forms.  A setup similar to what is discussed in this thread:

    https://www.jotform.com/answers/862039-Set-up-form-with-2-or-more-payment-methods-with-different-currencies

    Using your current setup to show the different forms would work, though submission data would be separated between the forms depending on which is submitted.
