Regarding the comment about the Euro above (about how it used to be the Swiss Franc but is likely the Euro now), please note that Switzerland isn't even part of the European Union! So of course its currency is NOT the Euro.
While they may accept the Euro, it is definitely not in your interest to use it if you'll be there for any extended amount of time, because stores never give you good exchange rates. Plus you certainly won't be able to use Euro coins in machines.

Swiss franc is the currency in Geneva.
(The Swiss franc is the only version of the franc still issued in Europe. Its name in the four official languages of Switzerland is Franken (German), franc (French and Rhaeto-Romanic), and franco (Italian). The smaller denomination, which is worth a hundredth of a franc, is called Rappen (Rp.) in German, centime (c.) in French, centesimo (ct.) in Italian and rap (rp.) in Rhaeto-Romanic. Users of the currency commonly write CHF (the ISO code), though SFr. is still common. SwF has been used in some publications[1] [2] but is not an official abbreviation.)

It's still the good old Swiss Franc - le franc Suisse - schweizerische Frank. You can pay in Euro in many places, but you'll get your change in francs.

It was the Swiss Franc but I suspect it is the Euro by now!
