  • Currency amounts can only be rounded, not set to fixed custom amounts
  • Orders cannot be edited when multiple currencies are involved
  • Unclear whether a geolocation app is needed to enable automatic currency detection

Response provided:
Another user explains that Markets enables selling across multiple currencies and regions within a single Shopify store, eliminating the need to create separate stores for different currencies.

Status: The original poster’s technical concerns about automatic currency display, pricing flexibility, and order editing remain unaddressed. The discussion appears ongoing with fundamental questions about Markets functionality still unanswered.

This is my understanding, I cannot see any benefits, only limitations. Am I doing something wrong?

  1. Markets does not display local currency automatically? Only if customer selects himself or if I install geolocation app??

  2. Amount is local currency is only rounded and cannot be set to a fixed amount by me?

  3. If I want to edit the order, I cannot because it is multicurrency?

Markets allow you to sell in multiple currencies or regions using a single Shopify store. You can also create multiple stores to sell in different currencies.
