Good question, Jannath! I've missed this same translation TWICE! I guess I'm just getting too old to remember stuff.
After seeing DL translation, I agree that "con" is better suited. In any case, I also replied "en" and am curious to know if it is correct or not...
I entered "I want to pay in dollars, please" at SpanishDict.com; the translation it gave was "Quiero pagar en dólares, por favor." Then I entered "I want to pay with dollars, please" and received the translation proffered at the top of this discussion as correct.
I believe that "Quiero pagar en dólares, por favor" is correct. Anyone agree?
The "yo" is redundant and often dropped. It's better to get in the habit of forming the sentence the way the language is actually used.
True but, it is optional and thus not incorrect (CholemariS question suggests that it was marked incorrect).
"Quiero" vs "Yo quiero"... the first expresses your desire while the latter tends to be perceived as a demand.

That is very interesting. How do you know this? Are you a native speaker of Spanish? If so, what country are you from?

I absolutely agree. En dolares is the correct solution after asking native Spanish speakers.
