Groupon.. Charge Canadians only in CAD.

The Issue

Groupon is charging some of the deals in Canada in USD. When they do this, Groupon does not specifically mention the currency (USD or CAD). Due to lack of clarity on currency, Canadians are being charged thousands of dollars every year in conversion fees and commissions by Financial Institutions.

The FAQ does mention "Purchases made on Groupon.com are charged in US dollars unless specified otherwise. For example, a deal that lists C$12 as the price will be charged in Canadian dollars." I do not think this is fair enough. The price for every deal should indicate the currency (USD/CAD), so that customers clearly understand what they are paying.

Please sign this petition urging Groupon to change their business policies to be fair to Canadians by using CAD for every Canadian deal.
