Bulgarian merchants face a legal requirement to display prices in both BGN and EUR from June 1 to December 31, 2025, across all store pages including checkout. This dual-currency mandate applies to products, cart, and checkout stages.
Current Challenges:
Shopify lacks native functionality for simultaneous dual-currency display
Checkout modifications require Shopify Plus plan, which most Bulgarian stores don’t have
Standard plans cannot customize checkout to show both currencies
Available Solutions:
Euro Dual Pricing App: Now available on Shopify App Store for storefront implementation
RIZN Development: Testing a workaround that may enable dual pricing even in checkout (beta testers welcome via [email removed]
Manual template editing by developers can address storefront/cart, but checkout remains problematic
Outstanding Issue:
Merchants on standard Shopify plans risk regulatory fines since they cannot modify checkout to meet legal compliance without upgrading to Plus. The community hopes Shopify will address this limitation given the mandatory nature of Bulgarian legislation.

Hello, I need assistance. In connection with the transition to the euro as a means of payment in Bulgaria, from 01.06.2025 to 31.12.2025 all prices in my online store must be presented in BGN and EUR - this applies to all products, cart and checkout. This is a mandatory requirement of Bulgarian legislation. In the picture I have attached you will see how the prices should look.
Unfortunately, Shopify does not have an easy solution for displaying two currencies simultaneously. This needs to be done by a developer, and several templates need to be edited, which is not a problem, just a job to be done. However, there remains one major issue: it is not possible to modify the checkout, and prices will be shown in only one currency(base) there.
At RIZN, we are currently considering an alternative workaround that could work and display both prices, even in the checkout. At this stage, this development is in the testing phase, and once we have a beta version, we will provide feedback here. If you would like to be a beta tester for this workaround, feel free to email us at hi(at)rizn.bg, and we can discuss how we can collaborate.
I hope that this helps to take some of the stress of this transition period with the new currency change happening, and is hopefully sufficient evidence for your hard work adhering to these laws
Hi all, the dual currency at all stages of the purchase includes storefront, cart and check out, also for any receipts being send out. There are now more solutions available for the storefront but none could change check out outside the Shopify Plus plan. So there will be all stores operating at the Bulgarian market and are not on the Shopify Plus plan that will be subject to fines if they cannot meet the legal requirements for showing the dual prices both on the storefront and during checkout. So hope Shopify considers this in their further developments sooner than later.
