About this app

Currency Converter automatically redirects customers to the appropriate currency based on their geographic location and allows them to check out in their native currency. It will also detect your customer's location and automatically switch to your customer's local currency. Aside from that, Currency Converter can round prices using a variety of rules. Shopify's live currency exchange rate is updated on a regular basis. This app performs admirably on PC, Tablet, and Mobile.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free plan, or do I need to pay from day one?

SmartCS offers a permanently free plan that includes unlimited currencies, all templates, theme install support, checkout currency notification, and technical and design support. A Premium plan is available at $12/month and adds features like price rounding rules and multi-currency rate controls, with a 7-day free trial before any charge.

Can my customers actually check out in their local currency, or do they just see converted prices on the storefront?

SmartCS supports full multi-currency checkout, meaning customers can both browse and complete their purchase in their local currency. The app's landing page highlights local currency checkout as a key differentiator, noting it is only available in certain apps on the App Store. This feature requires Shopify Payments to be enabled on your store.

How does the currency switching work — does it happen automatically or does the customer have to select it?

The app automatically detects each visitor's geographic location via their IP address and switches the storefront to their local currency without any manual action from the customer. Customers can also manually select a different currency from the switcher widget if they prefer.

How many currencies does it support, and are exchange rates kept up to date?

SmartCS supports an unlimited number of currencies on both the free and premium plans. Exchange rates are sourced from Shopify's live currency rate feed and are updated on a regular basis to reflect current market values.

Will this app slow down my store?

Merchants consistently report that the app maintains website speed and does not noticeably impact store performance. The Shopify App Store's AI-generated merchant summary specifically highlights that reviewers appreciate the app's performance, which maintains website speed.

How long does setup take — can I do it without a developer?

Most merchants report that installation is straightforward, and the support team offers free installation assistance for those who prefer not to set it up themselves. Multiple long-term reviewers note that the team also handles re-installation and layout adjustments after theme updates at no extra cost. The app works on PC, tablet, and mobile out of the box.

Are there any SEO or technical risks I should be aware of before installing?

At least one merchant reported that the app altered their sitemap URLs, resulting in thousands of 404 error pages and a significant drop in their site health score. This appears to be an isolated but serious issue. If SEO is critical to your store, monitor your sitemap and crawl health closely after installation and ensure support is responsive if problems arise.
