Language & Currency

Furbol tries to meet you in your own language and in a currency that makes sense for where you are. This page lays out what that actually does — and what it doesn’t.

Languages

Furbol currently ships in five languages:

  • English
  • Spanish
  • Italian
  • Portuguese
  • Russian

How your language is picked

The first time you open Furbol, it looks at your phone’s system language and picks the closest match from the five it supports. From then on:

  1. If you’ve picked a language in Furbol’s settings, that’s what it speaks.
  2. Otherwise, whatever language is on your Furbol profile is used.
  3. Otherwise, it follows your phone’s system language.
  4. If none of those land on one of the five supported languages, Furbol speaks English.

Regional variants (like en-US or es-AR) count as their base language — so en-US is read as English, es-AR as Spanish. The older sp code is also read as Spanish.

Changing your language

In your account settings you can either:

  • Pick a specific language from the supported five — overrides your phone’s setting, syncs to your profile, and follows you to every device you sign in on.
  • Use your phone’s system language — clears the override and lets the app follow whatever your phone reports.

What’s translated, and what isn’t

Translated:

  • The app’s labels, buttons, titles, and in-app wording.
  • Push notifications — Furbol sends them in the language on your profile, not your phone’s current language. So if you changed your phone to Italian for a week but your profile says English, your pushes stay English.
  • Activity-log descriptions (e.g. “someone booked a spot”, “quorum reached”) — written in your language.

Not translated:

  • Anything written by other players — game names, venue names, messages, nicknames. Stays in the language the author typed.
  • Phone numbers and contact data (no language involved).

Currency

Furbol handles money in two ways — inside the app through your wallet, and outside it in cash at the pitch. Currencies follow that split: a short list for the wallet side, pretty much anything for the cash side.

Online currencies

For online-paid games — the ones where Furbol’s wallet handles the money — you have two currencies to pick from: USD and EUR. Nothing else. Your wallet balance, top-ups, cash-outs, and host earnings can only live in these two. See The Wallet, Topping Up, Cashing Out.

Cash currencies

Cash games can use pretty much any world currency — the host picks. Nothing flows through Furbol’s wallet, so the currency here just sets how the price is displayed and how everyone squares up in person.

Your default currency

When Furbol needs to pick a currency for you (for example, the first time you touch the wallet), it looks at the country of your phone number and uses that country’s currency — as long as Furbol supports it. If you’ve registered more than one phone, the most recently added one wins.

Multiple wallets

If you’ve played in games with different online currencies, you’ll have a separate wallet per currency. Money doesn’t cross between them — you top up, spend, and cash out each one independently.

Location

Some features — “games near me”, the local activity feed, the venues list — use your approximate location (from the phone, with your permission). You can set your city from the profile settings if you’d rather not share live coordinates. See Your Profile.
