Currency icons for Power BI

Currency symbols tell the reader which money a figure is in. In a multi-currency report that matters more than decoration: a euro sign next to a converted total prevents misreads.

Using currencies icons in Power BI

Where currencies icons earn their place in a report, and how to keep them readable.

Show the currency once per context, not on every number. If the whole card is in euros, one icon in the card title is enough and the format string can drop the symbol; repeating it on every value adds noise.

When the currency changes with a slicer, the icon should change too. A static dollar icon over a figure that a slicer just switched to yen is worse than no icon.

Power BI tip: Make the icon dynamic: a measure SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE(Currency[Code]), "EUR", <euro data URI>, "GBP", <pound data URI>, <dollar data URI>) with Data category Image URL, shown in a card or table header.

Good uses

  • Labelling a reporting-currency slicer
  • KPI cards for revenue in a local currency
  • Column headers in a currency-conversion table
  • FX rate pages and treasury dashboards

Three steps from this page to your report

  1. 01

    Pick and colour

    Choose one of the currencies icons below and set its colour to match your theme.

  2. 02

    Copy the format you need

    SVG or PNG for Image visuals and button icons; the DAX measure or data URI for tables, matrices and cards; theme icon JSON for conditional formatting.

  3. 03

    Bind it in Power BI

    For a measure, set Measure tools → Data category to Image URL. For theme icons, import the theme and choose the icon in Conditional formatting → Icons.

Want the icon next to a formatted value with a target colour? The free DAX SVG measure builder draws icon + value cards, and the conditional formatting icons recipe walks through custom icon sets end to end.

Questions about these icons

Can I use these currencies icons in commercial Power BI reports?

Yes. They come from open-source sets under the MIT or ISC licence (30 from Lucide, 35 from Tabler Icons, 12 from Heroicons, 3 from Fluent UI System Icons), which allow commercial use. Keep the licence notice when you redistribute the icon files themselves; the full texts are on the licence page. Licence texts · licence file (.txt)

Why does my DAX icon show as text?

The measure's Data category must be Image URL (Measure tools → Data category). Also check that every # in the SVG is written as %23, which the copied measure already does.
