Make your store feel native in every market.
Local currency, local pricing, local payment methods, local content — so your customer doesn't feel like they're shopping with a foreign brand.


















The local experience. Built into every market.
Localisation isn't just a currency switcher. It's the full experience — currency, pricing, payment methods, content — adapted to fit each market.
Local currency, automatically
Auto-select country loads the right currency based on where your customer is. A UK customer sees pounds. A German customer sees euros. No switcher. No "USD" hanging over a UK product page.

Local pricing strategies.
Set different prices in different markets. Show tax-inclusive pricing where local customers expect it. Run free shipping thresholds tuned to each market. The price your customer sees is built for them — not converted from yours.

Local payment methods.
We support the payment methods customers in each market expect — not just credit cards. More relevant payment options means higher checkout conversion.

Country-aware content.
Show "best sellers in Canada" to Canadian customers. Show "best sellers in the UK" to UK customers. Make every market feel like its own store — without building separate stores.

The same product. A different shopping experience.
Here's what your customer sees at checkout — before and after OpenBorder. Real example. 1 lb apparel order from the US to the Europe.

How Bloom Nutrition did it

Bloom Nutrition was selling internationally — but the experience didn't match the brand they'd built at home. International customers were seeing USD prices, generic checkout, and no local payment methods. The result: lower conversion, fewer repeat purchases, and a brand that felt foreign in every market.
International revenue tripled in 12 months. Conversion lifted 40% in their biggest markets.

Frequently asked questions
What does "localisation" actually mean for an ecommerce store?
Localisation means making your store feel native to each market — local currency, local pricing, local payment methods, and country-specific content or merchandising. It's the difference between a US store with a currency switcher and a store that feels like it was built for the customer's market.
How does localisation impact conversion?
Customers convert at meaningfully higher rates when the experience matches their market. Local currency removes friction. Tax-inclusive pricing builds trust. Local payment methods let customers pay the way they expect. Each piece compounds — the full localisation suite drives up to 40% conversion lift across international markets.
Do I need to build separate stores for each market?
No. OpenBorder works with your existing Shopify store and uses Shopify Markets to handle the localisation layer. One store. Multiple market-specific experiences. No engineering project.
Does localisation include language translation?
Translation is handled by Shopify Markets and your existing translation tools — we plug into that setup. OpenBorder focuses on the localisation that drives conversion: currency, pricing, payments, and country-specific content.
Can I run different prices in different markets?
Yes. The platform supports market-specific pricing — so you can adjust prices to match local purchasing power, competitive positioning, or margin targets. You can also A/B test prices to find what converts best in each market.
