Choose your primary currency
Your primary currency is used to show your net worth, reports, and [budgets](/budget/create-budget). Accounts and transactions keep their own currencies.

**Choose carefully: you can’t change the primary currency later.**

2. If you need another currency, select **Other currency** and find it in the list.
