Global expansion, localizing content, and selling in multiple currencies and languages
Hi everyone, we're excited to let you know that we've added the ability for merchants to automatically redirect their cross border customers to the right international domain within a single store.
For example, if you use example.com to target the United States and example.ca to target Canada, a visitor from Canada who lands on example.com is automatically redirected to your .ca domain. This means that visitors are automatically localized to the right currency, pricing, and language.
If you use international domains, you can enable automatic redirection in Online Store --> Preferences:
More details about the new feature and how to setup international domains can be found in the Help Centre: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/domains/managing-domains/international-domains#switc...

Hey @coleatkinson,
Thanks for the useful information.
We've implemented the below onto our website:
https://uk.lupetechnology.com/ directing to the UK with the default currency set as GBP.
https://lupetechnology.com/ for the ROW with the default currency set as USD.
We are also using the Shopify Geo-location app with a pop-up and currency selector. However, when on the UK site and then changing the currency to USD with the currency selector, the currency changes but the site remains the UK one. Is there a way to have it redirect to the US domain?
Thanks,
Gaelle

Hi Cole,
Thanks for your reply.
What would happen for the all other countries if our current ROW domain was changed to target the US specifically?
Thanks,
Gaelle
