Hello Shopify Community,

 

I'm planning to expand my store to USA/CANADA by using Shopify Market. I have some questions before I start setting up my store in USA/CANADA Market.

 

-I'm planning to use Paypal to start off my market, but I got this message saying that Paypal does not support Korean Won, Will I still able to receive payment after setting up each store in CAD/USD when customers checkout? I'm planning to creat subdomain and Geolocation.

 

I would like to know if I will be able to receive payments from my customers if I set up each store with the different currencies even though paypal doesn't support KRW, or Do I have to change my main store's default currency to CAD/USD?

 

Thanks

It is now available via Stripe, with Easy,Pie for Shopify, if you have a Stripe US account you can accept wallets (Kakao Pay, Naver Pay, Samsung Pay, PayCo) and all local cards in South Korea in KRW without a local entity.

In KRW, it also supports credit debit cards like Visa Matercard etc., Apple Pay and Goole Pay.

It also supports multi-currency. So, for example: while your default currency is KRW, it allows you to accept payments in USD or CAD using fixed exchange rates for new markets (countries) that you add in the Shopify Markets settings.
