Expand Shopify Store Globally (Internationalize)

[@pascalludwig4536]

Great video! The only thing I'm missing for my use case is how to use different subdomains and landingpages. As you mention in your video, different countries have different habits and I need to show different products to those different countries. Thanks!

[@Astralwebincloves]

thanks. for this kind of requirement you will have to find an app to do so. there is no way out of the box to do so.

[@rickamorim2748]

So much great value in such a short video Thank you!

How do you handle multi language email marketing? Like abandoned cart emails and such

[@howtotech786]

Can you guide for country pages. If someone wants to crates sub pages for countries so what steps he will follow and how to add country and language code in html in Shopify. For e.g ( EN-us ) ( EN-gb )

How can I manage my inventory for each country? How to know if my products sold out in a specific country?

[@Astralwebincloves]

setup a location warehouse for each country and ship out of the specific country to the relevant order. and then check reports for inventory levels per country

Hey can you make a whole video on domain like on different domains show different home page... If domain is /en then show different page

[@alenaziegler2601]

The best video, that I've seen till now. I live in Switzerland and there are 4 national languages. Can I set up required languages without any apps, because I have an international ERP system with direct Shopify integration. Until now, we opened for each language a new Shopify shop. Is there a way to be multilingual in only one shop?

[@Astralwebincloves]

you can setup the 4 languages but it will depend on how your ERP integration syncs lanaguage data to shopify. You might need to modify the way it sends data

[@ElleSiBeauty]

Same for me! So hard in Switzerland !

[@ShinyR0]

Hi, I have a question. I followed your steps, but at 18:35, My subdomain is only set as "redirect to primary domain" and I only have the option to "set as primary domain". I do not have the "Don't redirect to primary domain" option. Any idea what is causing this issue? Thanks

[@Astralwebincloves]

do you only have a subdomain? do you have a regular domain as well? can you share a screenshot?

[@j.coenders1975]

Is it possible to use a different Logo on each domain? Because that needs translations as well. Love to hear from you. And are custom home pages possible for different domains?

[@kevinhort3251]

Im curious, does this also work with Paypal since those initial country settings are managed externally for them with regard to the different currencies? Does that affect the set up process?

[@Astralwebincloves]

not fully. shopify payments is only one that fully supports view in all currencies

[@Novometix]

is it really necessary to use a third party app for translation as shopify does also offer the feature to export and import csv files where one can input their own translation manually.

[@Astralwebincloves]

in most cases yes because shopify doenst allow you to translate everything only default information. will depend on the apps you use, on the theme to fully answer this question and the app ofcourse translates products which you cant do i shopify default.

thanks!

[@luciagonza7647]

Great video! Thanks so much. Can you have different products on your different domains or do all the products in the domains need to be uniform? For example in the US domain I’ll have 10 different products but in the French domain I’d have 20 different products.

[@Astralwebincloves]

thanks! out of the box, you will need all products to be in all domains but with a small customization via a developer you can pick and choose which ones appear where.

[@jdhahdbcisbc]

Great video!

[@Astralwebincloves]

thanks!

[@MaxMoserTV]

Great video, since you opted not to create multiple stores per country, can customers still checkout and pay in their desired currency? Or does it switch back to USD since your main store is that?

[@Astralwebincloves]

customers can checkout in their currency only if you use "shopify payments" with a single or multiple stores.

[@chrissabak5304]

I have a question: Shopify Markets does all of this, correct? Can you make a video on it please?

[@Astralwebincloves]

yes that is correct. you are the second one to ask. will expedite making of this video. note - cannot gurantee date but will work on it as soon as possible.

[@Coisnaud]

Thanks for the great resources! I wonder what's the difference in terms of features and functionalities between setting up multiple domains at one store v.s. opening up multiple stores with different accounts? Thanks again!

[@Astralwebincloves]

your welcome. its more of a business decision. do you want to manage everybody in the same backend (your business management), do you want to share customers (meaning that a customer logged in to a specific country is also logged into a different country). do you want to upload products once or many times? do you want to share settings? promotions? etc. lastly, do you want to pay and manage for multiple stores (multiple times you will pay for apps, shopify monthly fees, etc)

[@turkerturksever]

Will this cause a problem on google merchant center feed?

[@Astralwebincloves]

for multiple languages for google merchant feed you will need a 3rd party app to implement correctly.

[@musmus2248]

Thanks for the great explanation. İ want to ask a scenario, i will sell internationally as you do. 1- I want different language in different countries; 2- each geography will see different price and currency. But payment page cart can show one main currency. How is this possible?

[@Astralwebincloves]

if checkout payment page shows only one currency that means that you do NOT have "shopify payments". apps caan change lanaguage and pricing when you browse the site but when you checkout, you will need to have shopify payments for support of multiple currencies. hope that helps

[@MrGeorgefawzy]

its great how to specify a spesific products to be available in each country ?

[@Astralwebincloves]

you will need custom coding to achieve this

[@ghassanibrahim9008]

Thank you for the video! What if i wanted to do the first scenario to change currency only but shopify payment is not available in my country?

[@Astralwebincloves]

your welcome. if your country doesnt support shopify payments, you will need to choose a payment gateway that links outside of shopify so when customer goes to shopify checkout, they click to pay and then leave shopify to pay on that gateway (which supports multi currencies). also you might want to place a banner on the top of shopify checkout to mention that payment will leave shopify and supports multi currency.

[@hakimal-khateeb7710]

What about setting up different products or prices depending on country?

[@Astralwebincloves]

you can set prices per country via a csv only with a "shopify advanced" and "shopify plus" plans - see help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/multi-currency/international-pricing#set-product-prices-for-a-country-or-region

[@vashlow]

Hi, thanks for your great video! Can you advise if it's feasible to make pricing adjustment to each product pricing for each country in this scenario? Thank you.

[@Astralwebincloves]

yes you can have multiple currencies based on this setup

[@vashlow]

Thanks for your reply, I just want to reiterate say for example Product A is USD10 (when US site is selected), and if we want to set Product A pricing for Australia site to be AUD20 instead of the standard currency exchange rate conversion, is this possible? Appreciate

[@Astralwebincloves]

​@@vashlow unfortunately you will have to use a 3rd party app to achieve this to set a "set" conversion rate of specific price per currency. i would contact this app to see their "smart" option - apps.shopify.com/auto-multi-currency-converter

[@lyticseoacademia4648]

The video i was looking for long time. I was wondering if with that app for translation, if you were able to translate the url (slug) and meta titile y description as well.

[@Astralwebincloves]

happy to hear. url is not possible to changer due to the way that shopify works. you can use the app i suggested in 8:45 to translate the meta title and meta description

[@lyticseoacademia4648]

Thanks@@Astralwebincloves. But for a customer it would look really strange to land on a shop in spanish and have the url of a product in english. And even for SEO have url in english for a product page in spanish not sure it would be the most appropriate.

[@Astralwebincloves]

@@lyticseoacademia4648 yes it makes sense but unfortunately this is the way shopify's system works. you could make two products and enable them only for each language but would need another app for this

[@josephandrewpepito5759]

If you have an international store, do you have to pay taxes in each country you make a sale and do you have to register in each country you sell to?

[@Astralwebincloves]

Great question. Most countries if you don’t have a presence in that country (employees , office, sales, etc) you won’t have to pay taxes but note that it depends and you still need to consult with a legal and tax professional for the answer per country. Another way to find this out is to use a 3rd party service such as avatax and they will help you with this question

Hey! I am looking to have 3 different supported countries! Can i use 3 different domains so it shows their own currency/language always? I've been running to problems doing that from one domain. What i means is that i want to have different pricing for each country since i can't sell a product for really high price while country salary is low and vice-versa Can you edit the website individually from one account or i have to purchase 3 - 1 for each Great video so far :)

[@Astralwebincloves]

out of the box, there is no way to have complete different pricing for each country. you will need to have 3 shopifys or use wholesale apps to achieve this (wholesale meaning pricing per customer)
