title: PayPal API - CURRENCY_NOT_ALLOWED
body: <p>I am using the PHP PayPal REST API for credit card payments and a sandbox account and I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PayPal\Core\PayPalHttpConnection :
  ERROR: Got Http response code 400 when accessing https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/payments/payment.
  
  {
      "name":"CURRENCY_NOT_ALLOWED",
      "message":"Currency is not supported",
      "information_link":"https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/api/#CURRENCY_NOT_ALLOWED",
      "debug_id":"308d4b24ea4b5"
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The "information_link" they provide does not provide any information whatsoever about <strong>CURRENCY_NOT_ALLOWED</strong> and what I found on another page of theirs is "more than helpful": <em>Currency is not supported You are using a currency that is not currently supported.</em></p>
  
  <p>The problematic currency is NOK, while EUR seems to work just fine.</p>
  
  <p>Any idea on how to fix this?</p>
