Alturrency
Set once. Track everywhere.
Alturrency is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon that keeps Blizzard's native Show on Backpack currency selections synchronized across your characters.
Choose the currencies you want tracked on one character, and Alturrency maintains that shared selection across your other included characters automatically.
Features
- Automatically synchronizes your tracked backpack currencies across characters
- Uses Blizzard's existing Show on Backpack system
- Supports two-way synchronization — changes made on any included character update the shared list
- Per-character opt-out for characters you want to keep independent
- Preserves shared currencies that are not currently available to a particular character
- Automatically applies deferred currencies when WoW allows them to be tracked
- Prevents Blizzard's backpack watch-limit behavior from blocking valid Alturrency selections
- Built-in currency availability details
- Built-in Patch Notes and Support pages
- Compact privacy-friendly Diagnostic Code for support
- No external libraries or dependencies
How It Works
Track currencies normally through Blizzard's Currency window.
Alturrency remembers the shared selection and applies it to each included character. If a currency cannot currently be tracked on a particular character, Alturrency leaves the shared list intact rather than removing it.
Want one character to use different selections? Turn off Include this character and that character remains independent.
Alturrency synchronizes the tracking setting — it does not transfer currency between characters.
Tracked Currency Display Limit
Alturrency does not limit how many currencies can be synchronized. How many tracked currencies are visible on your bags at one time is controlled by Blizzard's UI or your bag addon and may vary with layout and UI scale.
Designed to Stay Out of the Way
Alturrency does not replace Blizzard's Currency window, bags, or tracked-currency display.
It simply keeps the underlying Show on Backpack selections synchronized.
There is no custom currency bar, minimap button, inventory database, wealth tracker, or additional on-screen interface.

Privacy-Friendly Diagnostics
Alturrency's Diagnostic Code contains technical information needed to troubleshoot synchronization problems.
It does not include your character name, realm name, or character GUID.
Compatibility
Designed for World of Warcraft Retail.
Tested with:
- Blizzard's default interface
- LiteBag
Alturrency does not replace or modify your bag interface, so bag addons remain responsible for how tracked currencies are displayed.
