Pricing a Shopify Product - Local Currencies

• Print + deliver shirts with Printful: https://goo.gl/80L1qL (affiliate) • Sell Printful shirts on a Shopify store: https://goo.gl/TMgQAb (affiliate) Choosing a currency to price your dropshipping product in is an important decision. If a customer sees prices on an online store that aren't in their own local currency, they are far more likely to abandon the purchase and leave your store. Shopify only gives you one choice of currency to use on your store. This is linked to the bank account you attach to your Shopify store. This is important to keep in mind. If you want to target U.S customers, you will need a U.S bank account. If you want to target U.K customers, you will need a U.K bank account. Choose your default store currency wisely!

1. Does anyone have any experience in setting prices for overseas customers? What experience have you had when working with different currencies?
2. Hey mate, watch this video and it'll walk you through on how setup your store to accept $$$ even though you live in the UK and have a British bank account. https://youtu.be/hZKpQpzArqE?list=PLNzNCv2ubzJFuVd4-4LAGjFh64tAyJZo-&t=161 :)
3. Thank you so much for this info. I have just discovered this drawback yesterday.
4. there are shopify apps that allow you to display currency based on geolocation
5. On my store, I use a manual selection in the top bar which is a free plug in called : Best currency converter its a plug in!
6. Google shopify currency converter app and you will find plenty of apps solving this problem
7. You can change the currency for your store. Im located in Sweden and we have a swedish currency here. I have created a total of 2 stores on shopify, one targeting US and price is shown in US dollars and one store targeting EU with prices shown in euros. :)
8. it's not as bad as you say it is. I buy with usd without hesitation. It might not be exactly the same the other way, but it's fine
9. Thank you! Your videos actually answer a lot of important questions and provide great value! I always wandered about this. I might have to consider using wordpress for my next store.
10. I am thinking this is why I barely get any sales, I always thought it was my FB campaigns but might be the fact that I am from UK and targeting USA audience.
11. i live in manila i want to sell in the uk. how is that even possible?
