Selectors (Language & Currency)

Currency Selector

Shopify now allows stores to allow customers to shop and check out in their local currency. This is a very positive thing because buyers are much more likely to have a good experience shopping in their own currency and finalize their purchase knowing that they will not incur any additional fees from their bank.

  • Set up your store’s Markets under Online Store > Settings This defines the regions that you sell to (you would have had to do this already to set up international shipping rates).

  • Activate local currencies. Go to Settings > Markets > International (or other Market) > Active.This will turn on the multi-currency shopping experience for the selected market. Ensure that your regions in payment settings match your shipping zones.

  • Show the currency selector in the header.

Language Selector

  • Open Admin Store Settings > Languages > Install translate & adapt app ( Shopify Translate & Adapt).

  • Click Add language > Select language > add. Then publish the Selected language > Translate option in the selected language

  • Click on the app which appears on the Translate > It popup to next page and then click auto-translate.

  • Wait for a few more minutes. Let the translation be completed.

  • Check with the theme by switching to Another language.
