Hey Nick,
I am having the same issue with my company where we sell Direct to Consumer globally but we have 2 entities that will be charging and billing clients depending on their shipping address.
This company structure needs to be supported for tax and regulation purposes.
Furthermore, we have a Loyalty & Referral program that has no borders.
The issue: Let’s take the UK and the US as an example, In the US I use ShopPay, AfterPay, and Paypal (as a US account). But in the UK I have Stripe and PayPal (as a UK account)
I need to create an expansion store and duplicate everything including blog posts and have a subdomain, not to mention the referral program won’t work cross border, and one of the stores needs to be NON Indexed for SEO purposes as well.
This solution is not great and involves a lot of extra work to be done to maintain 2 separate but exactly the same site.
If we choose the redirect option for ONLY the shop and checkout, the side cart won’t work and the header and footer will have a mess of links with redirects.
On WooCommerce we had a simple JS script that ran on the checkout to present the correct gateways and bill from the entity in that jurisdiction, all the customers will be in the same backend, with one set of third-party apps like loyalty and more.
Please develop a good solution for Shopify customers to enable these global company structures and do what you do best (Sell)
I will gladly talk to any solution expert to help with this
