I live in Moldova, and for whatever reason GOG decided that US$ is the only currency available to me, never mind that Moldova is in Europe, a candidate state to join the EU, and will change it's default exchange currency from US$ to Euros starting with January 2025. So why isn't my region "eligible" to use the Euro? It's not like it makes that much difference anyway, since it's all paid for remotely.
Try the following: At the bottom of the store page, switch the language to German and back to English- or any other language you have previously set, and Euro should become available to you as your currency of choice.

If this fails you would have to file a support ticket. I forwarded it, so you might receive help soon, if this trick doesn't work in your case. :)

Thanks for the reply, and for the forward. Sadly, it doesn't seem to work, USD is the sole option. Could it be because I'm on Firefox? I've read that some sites act up on Firefox.

When you are on the latest version, I would say no it isn't, because I am also using Firefox (PC/Windows 11) and I also ran into the same problem you are facing. Another member also had this problem and was able to solve it with the same trick.

Are you by any chance using an ad-blocker, 3rd-party script, proxy, VPN? Do you allow websites to access your physical location? Which location is displayed when you are visiting the Google main page, does it show a location close to you or a different region/country?

Lastly, you may wish to check the language and currency settings (see attached screenshot) and try the same trick again. If it still doesn't work and in case you are using uBlock or a similar ad-blocker, deactivate them, refresh the page, accept cookies if you haven't already, and it may work.

Hey Corbul! I've checked and it is "intended" that right now as a Moldova resident, your only available currency on GOG is USD. Although Moldova is in Europe, it isn't yet a part of the EU, hence no option to use Euros as a currency. I understand that it can be a bit counter-intuitive, sorry about that. Nonetheless, after Moldova joins the EU, adding said option is certainly possible :)
