Hi my business in Iceland sells online courses in Iceland and has Icelandic payment gateway. I have made subdomain from my site for International market. I have found app for currency convert but it can not change the currency in the checkout page. I am afraid this would hurt conversion if I follow through with going for International market. I can not use Shopify payments because in Iceland. I can not use stripe because they are not serving Iceland. Is there anything I can do? Except moving from Iceland?

Hi, thank you for your reply. Do you suggest any?
