+## CurrencyExchangeMixin

+
+```python
+
+from plugin import InvenTreePlugin
+from plugin.mixins import CurrencyExchangeMixin
+
+class MyFirstCurrencyExchangePlugin(CurrencyExchangeMixin, InvenTreePlugin):
+    """Sample currency exchange plugin"""
+
+    ...
+
+    def update_exchange_rates(self, base_currency: str, symbols: list[str]) -> dict:
+        """Update currency exchange rates.
+
+        This method *must* be implemented by the plugin class.
+
+        Arguments:
+            base_currency: The base currency to use for exchange rates
+            symbols: A list of currency symbols to retrieve exchange rates for
+
+        Returns:
+            A dictionary of exchange rates, or None if the update failed
+
+        Raises:
+            Can raise any exception if the update fails
+        """
+
+        rates = {
+            'base_currency': 1.00
+        }
+
+        for sym in symbols:

+## Currency Support
+
+InvenTree provides support for multiple currencies, allowing pricing information to be stored with base currency rates.
+
+### Configuration
+
+To specify which currencies are supported, refer to the [currency configuration](../start/config.md#supported-currencies) section
+
+### Currency Conversion
+
+Currency conversion is provided via the [django-money](https://github.com/django-money/django-money) library. Pricing data can be converted seamlessly between the available currencies.
+
+### Currency Rate Updates
+
+Currency conversion rates are periodically updated, via an external currency exchange server. Out of the box, InvenTree uses the [frankfurter.app](https://www.frankfurter.app/) service, which is an open source currency API made freely available.
+
+#### Custom Rate Updates
+
+If a different currency exchange backend is needed, or a custom implementation is desired, the currency exchange framework can be extended [via plugins](../extend/plugins/currency.md). Plugins which implement custom currency exchange frameworks can be easily integrated into the InvenTree framework.
+
+### Currency Settings
+
+In the [settings screen](./global.md), under the *Pricing* section, the following currency settings are available:
