Orbe automatically integrates with Shopify Markets or Global-e setups and provides geolocation for multiple expansion stores to recommend to your customers the version of your store that corresponds to their geo IP location and browser language. These recommendations appear as customizable geolocation popup in different languages, fitting each brand's style for geo country redirects. Our country selector empowers users to proactively adjust their country experience or language preferences.
Is there a free plan, or do I have to pay from day one?
Orbe offers a free plan that includes up to 300 user redirections per month, a geolocation popup, unlimited selectors, Shopify Markets integration, customizable design, automatic redirect, redirect analytics, and UTM parameter tracking. Paid plans start at $29/month (Advanced) and $59/month (Plus), both with a 7-day free trial. Annual billing saves 25%.
Will it work with my Shopify Markets or Global-e setup?
Yes — Orbe is purpose-built for Shopify Markets, Markets Pro, and Global-e Native, as well as stores using multiple expansion stores. It reads your existing Shopify Markets settings to geolocate users and direct them to the correct localized experience; it does not require separate currency or translation configuration.
Will this app hurt my SEO or Google rankings?
Orbe is specifically designed to be SEO-friendly and Google-compliant. On first visits it shows a consent popup rather than forcing an automatic redirect, which protects search engine crawlers from being bounced away from your localized pages. Automatic redirects only happen on return visits after the user has given consent.
How long does setup take — can I do it without a developer?
According to Orbe, most merchants set up the geolocation popup in around five minutes. The popup and country selector are configured as standard sections inside the Shopify Theme Editor, so no coding is required. A developer-facing "advanced code mode" is available for deeper customization if needed.
Does it integrate with tools like Klaviyo, and will it preserve my UTM/marketing attribution?
Yes on both counts. The Advanced and Plus plans include a native Klaviyo integration that syncs each customer's preferred country and language to your CRM for targeted email campaigns. All plans also preserve UTM parameters during redirects so your marketing attribution is not broken.
Is it GDPR-compliant — does it ask for user consent before redirecting?
Yes. Orbe captures user consent via a popup before any redirect occurs, and automatic redirects on return visits are only triggered after that initial consent is given. This consent-based approach is designed to comply with GDPR and CCPA data protection regulations, unlike Shopify's own built-in automatic redirection.
