Currency
You can choose the currency that your earnings are reported in. This currency is only used in YouTube Analytics, like your Estimated Earnings report and Ad Performance report, and does not affect the currency you're paid in.
Note: Daily earnings are converted using the prevailing market exchange rate for the day. Even if the reporting currency you have set in YouTube Analytics is the same as your payment currency, the exchange rates used in YouTube Analytics might differ from the exchange rate applied to your final earnings in AdSense.
Currencies other than USD are only available from October 2009.
