Topic summary
Afterpay payment option disappears at checkout for international customers when Shopify Markets is enabled, forcing merchants to choose between offering localized currency pricing or Afterpay availability.
Root Cause:
Shopify Markets’ multi-currency/geolocator feature conflicts with Afterpay’s cross-border functionality. When customers shop in a currency different from the store’s home currency, Afterpay gets hidden at checkout.
Official Workaround (as of mid-2023):
Disable the “Show prices to customers in their local currency” option in Shopify Markets settings. This restores Afterpay but forces all customers to see prices in the store’s home currency—defeating the purpose of Markets.
Recent Developments:
Multiple merchants report Afterpay suddenly appearing for international customers again (Australia, US, UK, Canada), though customers still check out in the merchant’s home currency rather than their local currency. The Afterpay widget displays a warning about which currency will be charged.
Current Status:
Partially functional but not ideal. Merchants can now process international Afterpay transactions, but the localized currency display issue persists. One user mentioned a potential Stripe-related solution via LinkedIn article. Shopify and Afterpay previously indicated they were working on a proper fix (originally targeted for mid-Q2 2023), but full resolution remains pending.
