Offer local payment options even with one store currency
Many Shopify payment methods require a specific processing currency. This limits international stores. For example, iDEAL requires EUR, so stores using USD or GBP often cannot offer it natively.
CartDNA solves this with automatic currency conversion during checkout. Your Shopify store keeps its base currency, while the payment method receives the supported processing currency.
USD Shopify store → customer selects iDEAL → CartDNA converts checkout amount to EUR → customer pays with a familiar local method
Customers prefer familiar pricing and local payment flow. Seeing their native currency builds confidence and reduces checkout hesitation.
Some methods only work with supported processing currency. Currency flexibility unlocks payment options customers actually want to use.
Fewer regional workarounds and simpler store operations when you can accept multiple currencies through one unified setup.
Prioritise currencies based on where your customers shop and which payment methods they expect to see.

When checkout and settlement currencies differ, conversion happens automatically
Yes. Shopify supports multi-currency selling depending on your processor setup and checkout implementation. You can display prices in multiple currencies and accept payments in different currencies, though some payment methods may have currency restrictions.
Yes, many local payment methods only work with specific processing currencies. For example, iDEAL requires EUR, Bancontact requires EUR, and PIX requires BRL. This is why currency support is critical for international expansion.
Yes, with CartDNA's currency conversion during checkout. CartDNA automatically converts your store currency to the required processing currency (EUR for iDEAL), allowing you to offer local payment methods even if your base store currency is different.
Checkout currency is what the customer sees and pays in. Settlement currency is what you receive in your merchant account. Payment processors may convert between these currencies and apply foreign exchange fees. CartDNA handles this conversion transparently.
Start with the currencies of your target markets. EUR for Europe, USD for Americas, GBP for UK, and JPY/SGD/AUD for Asia-Pacific are common priorities. Choose based on where your customers are located and which payment methods they prefer.
When a customer pays in one currency and you receive funds in another, processors charge FX conversion fees (typically 1-3%). CartDNA optimizes these conversions and provides transparent pricing so you know exactly what you'll receive.
Use the right currencies, local payment methods, and checkout logic to improve trust and reduce friction across markets.
