A UAE-based merchant seeks to enable multi-currency checkout while using Stripe as their payment gateway. The core challenge: third-party currency apps display multiple currencies on the storefront, but checkout reverts to the store’s base currency.
Key constraints:
Shopify Payments (the native multi-currency solution) is unavailable in the UAE
Stripe confirmed multi-currency support is possible in the region, but recommended contacting Shopify for implementation guidance
Proposed solutions:
One respondent suggests configuring Shopify Markets with proper currency settings, providing screenshots showing different currencies (AED for UAE, USD for USA) displaying correctly
Another user recommends “Easy Pie Shopify Stripe Checkout,” a third-party solution specifically designed to support multi-currency checkout and Stripe payment methods

I’m based in the UAE and I’m using stripe as a payment gateway. I want to offer multi-currency checkout. 3rd party currency apps of course work, but in checkout it goes back to the original store currency. Shopify payments which would be the best solution unfortunately is not available in the UAE so that’s not an option.
Stripe assured me that this works with them in the UAE, but I still can’t figure what should be done with shopify so they recommended I contact shopify support.
Any help on how we can have multi currency checkout in the UAE?
