Configuring currency rates

Every website selling products uses some kind of currency. Without a valid currency things would start to get messy.

Configuring these currencies is pretty straightforward. The most interesting part is the currency rate exchange. Every day this rate needs to be checked and updated. Decreases in value are important on the product you sell. So choosing the correct default currency needs to be considered appropriately.
