Shopify Markets - Sell to different countries using single shopify

Shopify Markets is a built-in Shopify feature that allows you to sell in multiple countries from a single Shopify store. It helps you customize your store based on the customer’s location, including pricing, currency, language, domain, and product availability.

Key Features of Shopify Markets

1. Country-Specific Pricing

• Set different prices for products based on the customer’s country.

• Example: Sell a product for ₹999 in India and $25 in the USA.

2. Multi-Currency Support

• Automatically convert product prices based on the local currency.

• Uses Shopify Payments for real-time currency conversion.

3. Localized Domains & Subdomains

• Assign specific domains for different countries.

• Example:

• example.com (Global)

• example.in (India)

• example.uk (United Kingdom)

4. Multi-Language Support

• Translate your store into different languages.

• Example: Display Hindi for Indian customers and Arabic for UAE customers.

5. Country-Specific Product Availability

• Choose which products appear in different countries.

• Example: If an item is not available in the USA, Shopify Markets hides it from US visitors.

6. Custom Duties & Taxes Handling

• Automatically calculate duties and taxes at checkout.

• Ensures compliance with different country regulations.

7. Payment Gateway Customization

• Offer country-specific payment methods (e.g., UPI for India, PayPal for the US).

• Increases conversions by supporting local preferences.

8. SEO & Local Search Optimization

• Each country site has its own domain or subdomain, improving SEO for different regions.

• Example: example.in will rank higher in Google India.

9. Automatic Redirection

• Detects customer location and redirects them to the correct store version.
