QWin Deluxe vs Premium currency features (edited for searchability)

Stan Moderate

Hi, with today's email announcement that my QWin Premium 2017 will cease to update exchange rates and stock prices after April I am looking to upgrade to a subscription.

Can anyone advise if Subscription Deluxe offers the same full Multi Currency features as my current 2017 Premium or must I purchase a Subscription to Premium? Other than currencies I do not need the additional features that Premium offers over Deluxe.

Thanks

Hi @Stan Moderate,

My understanding is that all US versions of Quicken - with the exception of the Starter edition can handle Multi-Currencies.  I do know that Deluxe has this feature.

Hope this helps.

The subscription versions are essentially the same products. It is mostly the business model that has changed. So, there is no reason to expect a change in behaviour in this area.

Hi @Stan Moderate,

The currency conversions built into Quicken in past versions (I am currently using Q 2017) have worked well, so I would expect the same from the subscription model/

Sounds good Stan!  Good luck with it.

Hi Frankx

Appreciate the swift reply. I have tried other software claiming Multi Currencies but they simply allow you to use different symbols (£, $, ¥ etc), the actual amounts stay the same when transferring between accounts of differing currencies.

Just to be clear can you confirm that transfers from one currency account convert to the receiving account using the rates in the Currency List?

Much appreciated.

I can confirm that nothing has changed in the currency support in Quicken Subscription, neither more or less.
