Currency Settings

To manage the currencies on your store, go to Settings > Currency.

Base Currency

This is the main currency used for payment transactions.
This currency is directly associated with the price of products entered throughout your settings. If you have more than one allowed currency, adjust the exchange rates from Set-up > Localization > Rates to ensure the currency selected on the front end displays an accurate price.

Default Display Currency

Choose the currency that will appear throughout the front end of your store.

Allowed Currency

Add any currencies you wish display prices for. If there's more than one allowed currency, customers will be able to select from a drop down that shows the price in the currency of their choice.

🚧

Allowing Multiple Currencies?

You may need to add a Currency Selector to your Theme Header. Open any page in the Theme Design Editor, and add the currency selector into your header using the +Add menu, drag & drop.
